Cask @ Tap and Can. Hazed golden yellow appearance, good white head. Confusingly not brewed with BRU-1. BRU is afrikaan slang. Very full bodied, smooth and exotic for cask.. NE vibes. Nicely exotic, pulpy overripe stonefruit. Good stuff.

Cask @ Tap and Can. Pours a hazed yellow, small white head. Pithy mandarin action to taste, can't detect much in the way of lime, some pleasant citrussy elements, brittle bitterness. Ok.

Cask @ Tap and Can. Pours pitch black, small tan head. Big aroma of coffee. Bucket loads of coffee to taste, prominent bitter espresso roast, slick mouthfeel.. good breakfast stout overall.

Keg @ Tap and Can. Misty gold appearance, small white head. Decent straight up IPA with gentle fruity hop shades, good bitterness, marmalade, grapefruit.. not hugely characterful but fine overall.

Keg @ Tap and Can. Pours a vivid crayon red, no head. Brings to mind an artificial strawberry ice pop from back in days of yore. Same shade of red too. Some lime shades, but a bit artificial and cheap tasting.

Keg @ Tap and Can. Misty gold appearance, small white head. Ok.. not the NE haze I expected.. prominent bitter tones, grapefruit, lemon and lime.. floral elements.. very far from a NE IPA. Not bad overall, but marked down for not being as pumpclip stated.
