[Cask at the Hope Tap (JDW), Reading at 4.4% ABV.] An amber pour with a ring of white head; the aroma has biscuity malts with a hint of spice; the taste matches this and is rather sweet; then there’s a dry finish with an earthy bitterness. Quite pleasant and seasonal.

Cask handpull at The Speaker London. Clear golden brown beer lasting white head. Some sweetness but a tasty beer in the normal Titanic mould. Some hoppyness on finish. Decent.
