From old notes. Visited the brewpub in the Summer of 2000. Cask. Copper coloured. A bit more carbo than Tap, a bit les hoppy and bitter, more sweet, malty finish. Noticeably stronger in alcohol.

Clear deep golden color with a off white layer on top. Moderate intensity in the aroma. Medium body and a soft carbonation level. Moderate sweet and a mild bitterness. A bit more fruit than normal and the usual caramel flavor. Not very inviting this.
