GBBF Day 1. Cask. Almost clear brown beer, good pale tan head. Smooth and soft palate, modest fine carbonation. Sort creamy malts, well integrated tangy chocolate. Mild tangy fruits. Slighty bitter finish. Smooth and tasty, could use some condition.

Cask @ Shrewsbury Real Ale Festival, July 2018. Pours a deep dark brown, off-white bubbles. Dark fruit nose. Taste is soft citrussy grapefruit, lemon, a little pedestrian and unexciting.
