Enjoyed ourselves at the Bar Nouveau, GBBF 08, with this more-than-average British bitter. It delivered a satisfying taste of tropical fruits supported by a lingering, dry bitter ending. Quite well bodied for the strength (I was so attached to the taste, that I forgot to make notes on the appearance, but it was reasonably good looking) (Hand-pulled cask, 07.08.2008).

Cask, Wirral Food and Drink festival. Ah said pay attention, boy ! Dark clear reddy colour with a medium creamyish white head. Fragrant hoppy aroma. Good balance of malt and fruit in the flavour with a nice dry bitter finish. A very drinkable bitter.

Cask at GBBF 2008 Pours dark brown in colour with beige head. This is really good, slightly sweet maybe but there are some lovely roasted burnt wood flavours pulsing through the bitterness hangs for some considerable time and there is coffee and bitter chocolate. This is a very good UK stout!
