Pigs Ear. Opaque black brown beer, small pale tan head. Light dry palate. Light touch of the dark malts, a little cream. Just a tiny bit of cherry! Was really expecting more cherry! Semi dry finish. Not bad though!

Cask at Pigs Ear BF 2012, London. Pours dark brown with a fine, tan cream cap. Lightly tangy dark malt aroma. Light to medium sweet flavor with further tangy malts, very little suggestion of fruit. Light to medium bodied with fine carbonation. Moderately dry and roasty to finish with a final kick of tangy, dark malts. Pretty unappealing by and large.

On gravity at Swindon Beer Festival, 25/10/2012. Dark brown with a touch of deep, cherry pink and slight, off-white head. Aroma of sour cherries, cherry pits and roasted malts, with a hint of sweetness. Flavour had plenty of cherries, sweet up front and tart later on, with a hint of smoke and dry finish. An excellent beer with cherry notes come from so many sources. My beer of the festival.
