CBJ tasting. Can. Hazy paleish gold beer, small bubbly pale cream colour head. Smooth palate, mildly dry, decent fine carbonation. Sweet malts, a ripe creamy sweetness. Soft pine. Ripe citrus. A little tropical fruits. Airy semi dry finish. Not bad.

Can from Prost, Bebington. Dark and glossy. Thick foamy beige head. Aroma os promising. Charcoal and coffee bitterness intertwined with a fruity streak.and a herbal edge. My initial reaction to the flavour was that it was tangy. Fruity with a sour edge. But it's muted and there's a almost gravy streak. Light-medium bodied. Slick. Average-fizzy carbonation. Long dry slightly astringent finish. Like a standard Session IPa, I found this underpowered. But also just odd tasting.

Half cask at Beermoth. Golden pour with creamy white head, rings of lacing left behind. Sweet, grainy aroma. Taste is bready, smooth, light, going well with the pork pie I ordered. Bready, smooth.

On cask at Beer House, Hillsborough - Black with a beige top. Lots of hefty roasted chocolate notes, slightly sweetened by a vanilla bean, burnt toast and black coffee finish. Solid.
