Bottle from Aldi, Manchester. Paler golden with a small head. Has that skuniness flavour often associated with clear glass bottles, and this came in a clear glass bottle. I usually pick from the back of the selection in the dark part of the shelf, but it clearly doesn't take much for the taste of the beer to be affected by light. It's not undrinkable though, with a hoppy base.

Taster at the Craft Bar. Pours black, with a thin, beige head. The aroma is sherry, light balsamic, cocoa, bitter pecans, and vanilla. Sweet and oddly tart. Medium body, with a sticky, and kinda syrupy palate. Funky, but pretty nice.

50cl bottle from Aldi, Bracknell. A straw coloured pour with a billowing white head; musty aroma with some traces of lemon; dry floral body with biscuity malts; becoming sweeter, with a herbal bitterness; then a drier finish with some grassy citrus, and an unexpected warmth. Better than anticipated.

Can. Nose: classic stout features. Light plus body. Smooth mouthfeel. Taste: dry roasty start with some coffee followed by complex ending that includes cream, smooth malts and just the right degree of hopping. Nice one

Cask at Three Blackbirds Inn, Cwnbran. Amber colour, white foam head leaving lacing and malty aroma. Taste is sweet malty, bready, fruity and with earthy bitterness. Creamy mouthfeel, medium bodied, soft carbonation, dry bitter finish. Quite OK.
