Cask at GBBF 2016. It pours darkest brown with a small head. The aroma is toasty, woody, cacao nibs, damp leaves, sweaty and umami notes. The taste is sweet, oily, treacle, toffee, Eccles cake, dried berry and some sweet sugary notes. The finish is bitter - sweet. Medium body and moderate carbonation. Comes across a bit sugary overall. Fair.

Handpull cask at the Crown Hotel, Downham Market. Copper with a big cream-coloured head and lots of lacing. Malt led aroma, but there’s also woodsmoke, redcurrant and forest floor. Bittersweet malty taste turns into a fairly stern hoppy bitter at the end of the sip. Long astringent bitter finish. A very good recipe.

Bottle from Beers of Europe. Pours dark brown with aa quickly dissipating white head. Shed loads of chocolate and vanilla in the nose, bit of warm spice action. The sweet chocolate cake/ice cream continues into the flavour. Quite a satisfying brew.
