Cask at the Southampton Arms, London on 12th March 2025. Copper with shallow off-white foam affording full lacing. Subtle maltiness in aroma. Malty and zesty in-mouth, and a bitter finish with hints of smoke. Light bodied with a velvet smooth mouthfeel. A fine, well crafted ale.

Cask by stillage at One Inn The Wood, Petts Wood on 15th February 2025. Deep sepia with shallow tan foam and full lacing. Dry toasted malts aroma. Sharply roasty in-mouth with pepper and hints of smoke and caraway seeds and fennel. A long lasting dry roasty smoky and peppery finish. Engaging mouthfeel and a light body. Exquisite.

Аромат богатый и даже сложный, есть нотки сливы а также сразу винчик и бочка, конечно же много солода, плюс есть специи а также нотки сладкие что то вроде ликера с яблочным пирогом. Цвет очень темный коричневый, пенка слабая. Вкус тоже сложный, но ни такой интересный в целом. Снова немного кислые нотки от винограда и сливы. Далее специи. При глотке солодовый удар, вместе с алкоголем, но не противным. Специи продолжаются, прямо перчиком отдает. Нормальный барлик в целом.
