Cask at Southampton Arms. Dark brown almost black colour with oily looking orange beige head. Looks potent. Aroma is very much full on and weird. Quite spicy, bit floral, lots of cinnamon and clove. A bit off-putting to be honest. Taste is similar but mellows a bit down the glass. Quite a winter warmer taste, and gets increasingly malty. Bit of bitter chocolate and lots of weird spice still. Touch of coffee. Texture is pretty oily and quite thick. Bit of a struggle to finish the pint.

Cask at Pig’s Ear Beer Festival, London. Really black. Heavy cardamom and nutmeg aroma. Sweet and doughy with full body, rounded mouthfeel.. Marzipan and christmas buns, some ginger. warming finish with some treacle. Interesting, but all the spices get a bit much.

Cask, gravity at Pigs Ear Beer Festival, Hackney, London, 06.12.11 Pours black with a light beige head. Full of nutmeg and cinnammon and as Chris rightly pointed out also a lot of clove in fact I guess that it is the clove that is responsible for this slightly numbing feeling. In truth this is far too heavily spiced, however I rather like it, its a one trick pony and it will be far too much for some, but it has made me think of Christmas and so I suppose in that sense it has achieved part of its objective.
