On tap. Pours a clear brown with light head. Aromas of caramel, maple and sweet malts. Flavors follow same, sticky and sweet but I like sweet barley wines...

Draft pour at Callister. Very dark brown pour. Root beer appearance. Warming, toasty malt aroma, with sweet indication. Flavor is toasty, with some sweetness, and a slight vegetal note. Not great, unless enjoyed side by side with their IPA. Good pieces to this.

Draft pour at Callister, per recommendation by mcberko. Pale golden yellow pour. Aroma is full of dough. Play dough and vegetables? What the hell? What is going on here? Flavor is a minty, pumpkin, doughy vegetable, spiced mess of an IPA. I thought the raters up here were just kidding when they talked about these beers. Impressive beer, I could say.

On cask at Callister, pours a cloudy golden yellow, no head. Nose is all sorts of fucked up, with garbage, boiled vegetables, and bitter hops - infected as fuck. Flavour is nasty, with garbage, boiled vegetables, vomit, and bitterness. Holy shit is this disgusting. Undrinkable garbage.

On cask at Callister, pours a clear copper with no head. Nose is a total trainwreck, with paint thinner, perfume, sweet honey and all sorts of nasty chemicals. Flavour is just anger-inducing, with nasty sourness, fermented out honey, garbage, vomit and acidity. This is absolutely atrocious. Once again, Real Cask impresses with releasing totally undrinkable garbage. Dear Callister Brewing, please kick out Real Cask - this product is shameful to sell.

Cask - Light Vegetal and herbal notes. Dark brown with almost no head. Light rootbeer like spice and a touch of sweetness.

On cask at Callister, pours a clear blonde with a tiny white head. Aroma brings out notes of soap, subdued hops and light straw. Flavour is very astringent, with soapy notes, astringent bitterness and light sweet cereal malt. Boozy and soapy. Classic Real Cask.

On cask at Callister, pours a clear pale copper, no head. Aroma brings out lots of artificial maple and vanilla, almost smelling like pralines n cream ice cream. Flavour is astringent and harsh, with paint thinner, perfume, maple, vanilla and booze. Very harsh and unpleasant in every way. Terrible.

On cask at Callister, pours a clear peachy copper with a small white head. Aroma brings out cloyingly sweet artificial fruits. Flavour follows accordingly, with disgustingly, cloyingly sweet artificial fruits. This is absolutely repulsive. Just when you think Real Cask can't outdo themselves for offensive beers, they deliver with another. Contemptible stuff.

Cask - Sour and butterscotch. Clear gold with a small white head. Sweet and bitter with only a touch of sourness. Much too sweet.
