Bottled. A dark amber beer with a thin beige head. The aroma has notes of over ripe fruits, almost rotten combined with notes of caramel and malt. The flavor is sweet with notes of over ripe fruit, caramel, and malt, leading to a dry woody finish.

Cask: Deep golden, smaller white fluffy head; "woody" hops and a vinous fruitiness in the nose, a bit "corky", too; dryish bitter-sweet flavour, light to medium bodied; the same flavours dominate the dry bitter-sweet flavours. O.K., nothing to complain.....

Cask at the Green Lodge, Hoylake. A dark brown affair with a mid sized creamy tan head. Not much in the nose. Malt predominating throughout the flavour with some vague dark fruit lurking. Pretty uninspiring. Not especially offensive, just tedious.
