From cask at In De Wildeman, Amsterdam, during Carnivale Brettanomynces 2017. Aroma is malt with tart red and dark fruits, wood, caramel, currant, earthy notes, a bit funky. Flavour is tart and light sourish. Body is medium. Very interesting and enjoyable damson sour.

Bottle picked up from Hoptimism online shop. We're listening to Steve Lamaqs Music Roundtable on 6 Music, in which clips of old Roundtable s from 80's etc are being re-aired. Cooking a Carbonara, Thursday 3rd January 2018. Hazy mid gold with a large the frothy off white head. Another beer from Landlocked that despite being a couple of months past its BBD end Oct, still tastes pretty fresh, a touch of soapy hop perhaps but frisky and quite fresh. I prefer this to the Old Nelson, it's cleaner, more distinct and a very good IPA albeit weaker IPA at less than 5%. Fruity, dry, citrussy, good beer. A6 A4 T7 P4 Ov15 3.6

Bottle picked up from Hoptimism online shop. We're listening to Steve Lamaqs Music Roundtable on 6 Music, in which clips of old Roundtables from 80's etc are being re-aired. Nothing exciting for tea tonight just cooking a Carbonara, Thursday 3rd January 2018. The beer dirty gold/amber with a huge frothy off white head. Despite being a couple of months past its BBD end Oct, this still tastes pretty fresh, bitter but quite rustic, very down to earth. Aroma is more earthier than expected. So in the mouth bitter, earthy/rustic some citrus, a little caramel. I like it because it's different. A6 A3 T7 P4 Ov13 3.3

Very hazy gold beer, good pale cream colour head. Palate is airy and fairly dry, good fine minerally carbonation. Fluffy malts, mildly sweet. Slighty tired tasting hops, little orange peel. Mild pine. Citric pith on the airy dry finish. Fairly dull.
