Cask @ Calans, Hebden Bridge. Clear copper-amber with a creamy head. Has a sticky-sweet texture, with a clear strength, lots of sugars and is fairly malty too.

Cask. Pours a deep amber with a slight haze and a small and lacing off-white head. Caramellish nose, some overripe fruit. Rich body, chewy and toffeish, some lurking phenols but nothing to spoil the fun of a rich and warming winter ale. 300113

Cask, Crescent, Salford. Great name for an xmas ale. Dark bronze colour with a thin off white head. Fruity aroma with malt and booze notes. Flavour slightly prickly with some spicy burnt orange mingling with the caramel malt and some gentle hop. Pleasantly surprised by this one.
