Cask-conditioned, on gravity, at Maidenhead Beer Festival 27/7/2018. Deep brown with a slight, off-white, head. Toasty malts, some plain chocolate and touch of dark fruits, leafy hops and a fairly soft finish. Good.

Cask @ Trades Club, Hebden Bridge. Golden with a small bubbly head. Hoppy, it has sugars in its nose, but is a sessionable ale.

Cask at the New Leathern Bottle, Warfield. A pale amber pour with a loose white head; leafy citrus aroma; crisp citrus taste with a sweet bready body; and a sweet tangerine finish with a little earthy spice. A pleasant summer beer.

31/5/2018. Bottle from Steam Cellar, Whitley Bay. Pours golden amber with a small off-white head. Aroma of biscuit, grain, fruit, caramel and malt. Moderate sweetness and bitterness. Light body, slight watery texture, average carbonation. Some sharpness to finish. Ok, but not a winner for me.

17/4/2018. Cask at the Ale House, Chelmsford. Pours very dark brown with a small beige head. Aroma of chocolate, coffee, roasted malt, dark fruits and berries. Medium sweetness, quite light roasted bitterness. Medium body, slick texture, soft carbonation. Not spectacular, but a solid performing stout.

Well... wasn't a one-off as it as on again. 30/04/18. Rich chocolate and liquorice aroma. Dark and glossy. Middling beige head. If Terry's Chocolate Orange used extremely bitter chocolate it would taste like this. With added liquorice. Medium bodied. Oily. A slight fizz of carb. Slightly astringent finish. Like. Big time.
