Cask at Callister, Vancouver
Hazy dull golden color. The yeast dominates, it's quite spicy, with strong bitterness, light watermelon, no carbonation, maybe some salt, harsh yeast in the final. The aroma is also a bit cheesy.
This is a quite bad homebrew, shouldn't be sold professionally.

At Callister: pours copper with no head. Aroma is herbal and malty. Taste is malty and lightly bitter. Kind of meh.

On cask at Callister, pours a hazy dull golden with a small white head. Aroma brings out notes of soap, earthy hops and biscuity notes. Flavour is very soapy, with tons of detergent and subdued citrus. Nothing gose-like about that. Another nasty soapy yeast bomb.

On cask at Callister, pours a cloudy golden yellow with a small white head. Aroma brings out muffled English hops and bready malt. Flavour is totally obscured, with muffled yeast, English hops and bready malt. Jumbled and uncoordinated. Not good.

On cask at Callister, pours a muddy brownish orange with a small white head. Aroma brings out lots of earthy yeasty notes, alcohol and light caramel. Flavour is muddy, alcoholic, yeasty, and has some weird chemical off-flavours. Another amazingly revolting beer from Real Cask. How can you sell this?

On cask at Real Cask, pours a cloudy pink-tinged orange amber with a large frothy white head. Nose is muffled and yeasty, with lightly tart blackberries and some sweetness. Flavour is sweet and sour, with tart pithy blackberries and moderate sweetness. Reasonably balance and clean, which is saying something for this brewer. Okay.

On cask at Callister, pours a dark purple with a medium bright pink head. Aroma brings out pithy berries and lots of soap. Flavour is along the same lines, with tons of soap and pithy berry fruitiness. Too soapy and earthy, with little depth. Not very good.

Bright amber with a bubbly cask head. Looks appetizing. Hard to pick out much on the nose, light fruity notes maybe. Harsh on the palate...massive bitterness, some esters and hop fruitiness but just overwhelmed by harsh, unbalanced bitterness.
