Flavour is composed of tart woody ginger, zesty tart lemon, pale grains, hint of mint, tangy, galingale. Palate is tart and tangy, moderate cask condition, hint of sweet and sour. A unique beer. I really like the blend of spices.

Bottle split at CCii, thanks to Fergoose, 05/03/16. Black with a decent tan cap. Nose is tangy dark fruits, light smoke, chocolate, taste berry, wood must. Taste comprises fruit cake on the turn, spice, cherry skins, Brett tickle, fruit balsam character. Medium bodied, fine carbonation, light acidic rise in the close. Drinkable sour but doesn’t deliver much in the way of complexity when considering the ABV.

Bottle. Cotteridge Beano v2. Notes are pretty ropey by now. The bit I can make out says, "gravy". 2.8. I’ll have to sort this note making out...
