Cask at the "Southern Ale Adventure" Beer Festival at the Prince of Wales, Farnborough. An opaque black pour with a loose beige head; toffee aroma; rich dry burnt treacle taste; with a lasting dry bitterness and a hint of pepper. A satisfying dark ale, rather similar to Hobgoblin.

Cask. Devonshire Cat, Sheffield. Clear amber. Off white, sticky head. Lovely hoppage. Rye (I’m guessing) malts, and Sorachi hop blending well. Juicy, and spicy. Taste is much the same. Decent balance of spice, sweet, and juicy bitter. Poffed it quick.

Good malty structure. Crisp and clean. Loads of zing. Sorachi ruins it but really well-made still.

Train rate on way to Borefts VII. Thanks to James. Slightly hazy gold beer, tidy white head. Palate is light, semi dry and has decent fine carbonation. Smooth malts, some sweetness. Mild spice. Little orange peel. Light finish. Mild bitter linger. Not bad.
