500ml bottle from Busby's cellar. Golden amber colour, white foam head that quickly dissipates away to a thin rim and aroma of fruity apple, tangy, funk hint. Taste is sweetish, tangy, apple, bittersweet, juicy, fruity, with hints of caramel, vanilla, funk and some mellow tannin. Medium bodied, light carbonation, medium-dry tannic finish along with alittle lingering funk. Nicely drinkable.

Bottle at home, from onlinesville some time back, 06/11/20. Black with a big old tan covering that stays for the show. Nose is mellow roast, whiskey barrel tones, dried fruits, chocolate, toffee, light dusty funk manure. Taste comprises dusty fruit rinds, light spice, booze tunes, cocoa powder, raisins, fruit cake, subtle barrel. Medium bodied with some boost, fine massaging carbonation, semi drying close with a balanced kiss of whiskey laden alcohol. Solid sipper ... drinks easy for the double digit ABV ... mellow barrel and has clearly aged well ... dunno why the other London wankers hated so much !

440ml can delivered from KWM Wines and drunk at home. Light yellow in colour, clear with a large, loose off-white head. Apples, grassy notes, mint, some vegetal character in the confusing aroma. Bitter taste with some fruity sweetness mid-sip. Some white grape, some orchard fruit. This really doesn't work very well.

Bottle on the 1815 Piccadilly-Euston, thanks to Fergus. Hazed golden orange with an off white cap of frothy bubbles. Nose is stale hops, grains, dusty fruits, apple skins. Taste comprises harsh citric elements, grassy, disjointed, light minerals, dusty, lemon rind, herb. Medium bodied, fine carbonation, semi drying close spiked with lightly astringent hop bitterness. Not great at all ... surprised BD bars stock this rubbish.
