Sample at the brewpub. The beer pours a cloudy amber color with a medium thin off-white head that evaporates steadily. Rings of lacing on the glass. Toasted malt, caramel and mild hops in the nose. Medium body with a caramel malt character and notes of floral hops and fruit. The finish is grainy malt with a lingering sweetness. Decent overall.

Cask at the brewery - a very sweet old ale, with a lot of raisin, fig, plum and cherry - a bit of treacle - however, there is a bit of tartness through the middle, and even a slight hint of earthy, almost funky character that cuts these sweet notes quite well - a bit of chocolate covered cherry in the finish - lingering leathery earthiness - I like it.
