Cask at Greyhound, Derby Pours a dark ruby red with absolutely no head at all. Nose is like boozy rotten fermenting apples. In the mouth is a contrasting mishmash of fruits, plums, apples, grapes, all overlain with a general musty sweetness. Roast malts underlie it as well. Finish is again very sweet but at last some hops start to show through – but by now it is too late ! Weird, sickly, not for me

I really must step into the modern world and purchase one of those flashy phone thingys.... anyway back on track.... flavours of toffee and orchard fruit. Quite dry. Not bad.
