Cask handpull at Liberty Bounds JDW London. Clear deep ruby brown beer lasting tan head. It’s a toasty roasty dark ale. Dark fruits. A little ashtray. Decent condition. Very good dark beer. A bit like an old. Not a stout nor a porter. Not a dark mild. I would say an old ale. I liked the sour blackberry

Cask at the Hope Tap (JDW), Reading. Brown with a thick beige head and a light fizz. Caramel with slightly fake milk chocolate and a little dry woodiness that just about stops it from being too sweet. Ok mild.

(Cask at Craft Beer Co Clerkenwell, London, 27 Nov 2016) Golden amber colour with foamy, off-white head. Fruity, malty nose with notes of citrus, tropical fruit and biscuits. Malty, fruity taste with citrus, topical fruit, some tea and a balanced citric bitterness. Medium body, with a touch of sweetness. Tasty and refreshing. Quite nice.
