Cask at Standing Order, Derby. Pours a very dark reddish-brown with a small beige head and good lacing. The aroma has chocolate and roasted malts. In the mouth it is briefly sweet before quickly becoming slightly bitter with roasted malts and a creamy texture. Flavour is mainly chocolate and treacle with some traces of honey and coffee. Some hints of alcoholic strength too, and a general smoky infusion leading to a slightly bitter finish. The is rather nice.

Cask at GBBF'23, day two, 02/08/23. Clear golden blonde with a white cap that thins to a swirl. Nose is lemon rind, herb, grass, citric tinged straw, light breads. Taste comprises soft malts, melon, tangerine, light breads, straw, toasted grains. Medium bodied, soft carbonation, semi drying close with a mellow bitter kiss. Okay cask affair if a touch subdued by Oakham's standards.

[Cask at The Coronation Hall (JDW), Surbiton] A straw coloured pour with a dense cream head; citrus aroma; fruity orange taste with a biscuity body; then some zesty lemon to finish. Refreshing.
