Fra cask/gravity på den koselige - og knøttlille - Newport Ale House, Isle of Wight 24 Jan 14. Mørk gylden. 0 skum. Svak ferskenaroma. Smaken litt vassen. Mandler. Svakt søtlig ettersmak. Grei - men litt kjedelig.

Cask at Counting House JDW, Glasgow. Pours clear dark brown, big bubbles on top. Toffee nose, not much else. Tastes like the 1970s; or an out-of-date can of Stones bitter. Didn’t like it much.

Cask at The Playhouse, Colchester. Poured a clear medium to dark amber with a bubbly white head. The aroma is hop liqourice juicy fruit. The flavour is light bitter light sweet with a watery malt toffee hop bitter palate. Medium bodied with soft carbonation. Rather nice actually and not the hop fest I was expecting.

(Cask at Akkurat, Stockholm, 13 Dec 2013) Amber colour with frothy, off-white head. Malty, fruity nose with notes of caramel, nuts, dried fruit and earthy hops. Fruity, malty taste with dried fruit, nuts, toasty malt and a generous earthy bitterness in the finish. Medium body, with balanced sweetness. Well balanced and tasty winter warmer. Nice one.

Cask-conditioned at the Bag O’Nails, Bristol 13/12/2013. Deep, ruddy brown with a decent, off-white head. Malty and on the sweet side, with plenty of fruit, a hint of roast and moderately bitter finish. Good.
