Cask @ The Pub, Hebden Bridge (formerly Calans). Golden with a head. It's a hoppy session brew with not much bitterness.

Cask @ Nightjar, Hebden Bridge. Brown with a reddish glow and a thick light-brown head. It has a slightly sweetened plum taste and aroma and is very easy in the palate.

Cask @ Fox & Goose, Hebden Bridge. Golden and hoppy in its nose. There’s a hint of lime in its taste and there’s a good hoppiness here. It has nice water too, at an easy strength.

13/7/2021. Cast at the Rutland Arms, Sheffield. Pours clear dark ruby brown with a small creamy off-white head. Good looking beer. Aroma of cocoa, chocolate, roasted malt, caramel, vanilla, nut. Had a slight chlorine/sulphur edge. Medium sweetness and light bitterness. Moderate body, soft carbonation. The edge aside this was pretty decent.

75cl bottle from Craft & Berry. Appearance - close to jet black. The carbonation isn't very intense - thin crema head results. Nose - dark chocolate, molasses, smoke and charcoal. Taste - creamy dark, chocolate this time. Still some molasses and definitely smoky. Palate - medium to full bodied. Rich sweet texture, that is nicely swept away by the smoky finish. Overall - yes, like this.
