Opaque orange/amber.Small head, good lace. Slightly flat.Peppery nose. Peppery, yeasty palate. Sad to say but probably the best of a very average lot at the caskival

Shimmering light amber colour - nice and cloudy. Sweaty, slighlty spicy aroma with lots of coriander. Light malty body with lots of coriander and cardamom. Manages to be both unbalanced and restrained at the same time. It’s a beer that doesn’t go for major gusto but hits with spices that could use a few weeks to mellow out. Dryish, spicy finish. Also, the cask-conditioning doesn’t really work. It needs more carbo and a cooler serving temperature, especially in the hot summer. I’ll be at the brewpub later this month anyway so I’ll revisit the issue at that time.
