Cask at Three Tuns, Bristol. It pours deep red - brown with a small beige head. The nose is bitter - sweet, caramel, fruit cake, candied peel, burnt brown sugar and stewed peach. The taste is smooth, sweet, peach, apricot, toffee, fruit cake, earth, toasted brown bread and dry wood with a dry finish. Medium body and soft carbonation. Balance is pretty great. Nice work.
