Cask at Pig's Ear '17,day one, 05/12/17. Hazed orange with a decent off white head. Nose is stewed fruits, caramel, booze fumes, bread pudding. Taste comprises candied fruits, sticky and chewy fruits, figs, caramel, dried fruits, melting sugar. Full bodied, moderate carbonation a touch cloying, boosty rise in the close. Ok sipper if a bit hot and raw and ultimately lacking depth of flavor given the ABV.

Pigs Ear. Cask. Light haze on this gold beer, a few pale cream colour bubbles. Light palate, semi dry, modest fine carbonation. Very grainy malts. Some serious cereal action here! Ripe orange before more chewy cereal. Terminally grainy and God awful.
