On keg at Shilling. Appearance - cloudy yellow. Nice fluffy head. Nose - banana and light sweet spice. Chantilly cream note. The merest hint of toffee. Taste - loads of creamy banana again. A touch of nutmeg and some bread. General pudding notes. Palate - close to medium bodied with a creamy texture and a fairly good finish. Overall - this was pretty authentic I thought.

On keg at Shilling. Appearance - golden amber and hazy. Nice fluffy head. Nose - crunchy biscuit and orange. Loads of earthy resin. Taste - more earthy resin notes and something tropical. Dry pithy finish. Palate - light to medium bodied with a crunchy texture and a long dry crunchy finish. Overall - complex if a bit gnarly. Almost in ESB territory in fact.

Keg at Shilling. Pours clear red-brown with a light haze and a thin off-white head. Aromas are herbal, some liquorice. Itβs not a black Ipa as we know it, Jim. Something minty going on. Odd.

Cask at SBC, Glasgow. It pours cloudy golden - orange with a small white head. The aroma is fresh hop, floral, grassy, straw, bread and light spice. The taste is crisp, bitter, grassy, rather floral, spice, straw, wood, slightly grainy, mild tannin vibe and citrus peel with a dry finish. Light - medium body and fine, prickly carbonation. Hops come across quite floral to me. Decent enough session stuff.
