On cask at the Stockbridge Tap. Appearance - opaque black with a lovely fawn head. Nose - dark chocolate with liquorice and charcoal. Taste - liquorice and toffee. Dark chocolate again. Palate - medium bodied with a creamy texture and a long dry yet balanced finish. Overall - i would classify this as a dry stout. Very nice for such low ABV.

Cask at the Seven Stars, Bristol. It pours near black with a small tan head. The nose is earthy, toast, dirt, dark fruits, salted caramel, liquorice and rocky road. The taste is smooth, roasty, liquorice, toast, earth, dirt, charred stuff, treacle, dark fruit and mild acidity. Medium body and fine carbonation. Easy going and rather drinkable.

Cask @ Old Gate, Hebden Bridge. Medium roasted dark (but not black) stout with a thick off-white creamy head. It’s sips down the palate with ease.

Cask at the Milton Keynes Beer Festival 2013. Poured a dark ruby with a thin, rocky beige head. Aroma of coffee, peat and burnt sugar. Mouth feel was disappointingly watery. Flavours of stale coffee and roast malt. Finish was slightly nicer with bitter burnt notes, hop resin and a light metallic edge.

On cask at Three Tuns @ Dronfield - a robust stout which looks great, black body, white head, but lacks anything in the nose. A spicy bite redeems this, making it a quality stout. Excellent.

Cask-conditioned at the Three Tuns, Bristol 21/11/2011. Almost black with no head. Berry fruit and chocolate aroma. Flavours of coffee, more chocolate and a dryish finish. Ok, if a bit thin in the mouth.
