Cask @ Victorian Craft Beer Café, Halifax. Very hoppy with a high tropical fruity aroma and taste. There’s citrus here, which is not too sour, but has a bitterness. Golden with a small head.

Cask @ Victorian Craft Beer Café, Halifax. Apparently Vocation had a lot of left over Simcoe hops from Chop & Change so decided to brew this special version of one of their regulars. Golden-amber with a small creamy head. Has a smooth tasting tropical fruit hop aroma and taste. Has lots of flavour with a low citric character.

Cask @ Fox And Goose, Hebden Bridge. Almost black, but not quite. Is at its most ’stout’ in its aroma, with its strength dominant in taste. It’s more porter-like than stout in terms of its taste though.
