Cask handpull from The Brew Wharf. Sat with Tom, Melissa Cole and Christian the new brewer here. Chestnut clear, lasting beige head. Slightly buttery malt, some Cascade hop. Not as wide in the mouth as you’d expect. Fairly one dimensional in the mouth and flavour. Not as hoppy on the finish as you might expect, but a bit of a grower overall. Christian called it an APA and will brew a pumpkin beer next.

From cask at the brewpub. Pours clear and golden deep amber with a small, off-white to light tan head. Aroma is solid hops fruity with a light roasted malt note. Bitter, light liqourice and roasted malt flavoured. Lingering roasted malt flavoured towards toffee and with a solid fruity bitterness into the finish.
