Cask at the Chelmsford Winter Beer Festival. Shared with Keen. Clear amber beer. Residual bubbly off white head. Smooth palate. Low carbonation. Lots of sweet caramel malt. Some trace of hop in the smooth finish but this an unbalanced beer. Manages not too be offensive though!

Cask (South Western Arms, Southampton) - Copper coloured. Fruity aroma with Christmas cake and raisins. Fruity taste with raisins, plums and Christmas cake. It’s rather rich and I don’t think I’d be able to drink too much of it.

Not really any head. Hazy dark red body. Faint wild berry aroma. Sweetish woody wild berry taste with earthy notes. Dryish aftertaste. Nice, but not great. (0.5pt on cask.)

(Cask at White Horse, Parson’s Green, London, 26 Nov) Dark amber colour with small head. Fruity nose with dried fruit, apricots and hops. Slightly closed. Fruity taste with dried fruit, apricots, grapefruit and a seriously hoppy finish. Rather sweet and vinous. Lots of taste, very hoppy and nice.
