Cask @ Stafford Beer & Cider Festival. Nice head with good duration. Color is brown. Aroma and taste are caramel, nuts, chocolate and hops. A little watery, but has a decent bitter finish.

Leeds Beer Festival 2017. Very dark with the damson very light. It’s all slightly bland, but still palatable.

I’ve had this multiple times before, kind of surprised that I haven’t rated it. Handpull cask at the Queen Edith, Cambridge. Dark brown with a hint of magenta. Tightish tan-grey head on top which quickly dissipates. Lots of lacing. Liquorice and raisin are inter fused with sharp plum in the aroma. Bittersweet, juicy taste, dominated by the damson but that’s no bad things. Bittering hops sit stubbornly on the tongue in the long finish. More liquorice and some charcoal in the aftertaste. Pretty good and it grows on me over the course of the pint which is always a good sign.

On cask at the Armoury in Shrewsbury. Appearance - opaque black with a lovely fawn head. Nose - plum jam and toffee. Taste - more of the same. Palate - medium bodied with a creamy texture and a fairly good finish. Overall - interesting ale.

Gravity cask at the Birmingham CAMRA Beer Festival 2015. Poured a clear dark reddish brown with thin broken white head. The aroma is light smoky malt. The flavour is smoky malt liqourice bitter with a light medicinal yeast, dry earthy palate. Medium bodied with soft carbonation.

Cask at the Water Witch, Lancaster. Pours clear dark copper with a thin beige head. Aromas of light toffee. Taste is light fruit. Not really getting damsons though, some chocolate notes. Sweet finish.
