Third by cask, third day of GBBF Winter 20, Iron Bridge Bar. Shared with Finn. Clear amber-brown body, naked at the top, poor lacing. Stewed fruity nose, vinous. Dried fruits and berries to the taste buds, jam-like impression. Warming marmalade finish. Smooth. Sipper qualities, overly sweet in the long run. (Birmingham 06.02.2020).
