Cask (Cross Keys, Covent Garden) - Golden with a white head. Lemon, grain and a hint of sulphur in the aroma. Lemon, tea and grain in the taste. A little disappointing.

Bottle from Ales By Mail [160814]
Very dark ruby, thin tan head that dissipates to thin rim
Aroma of dark malts, very soft citrus, soft dark chocolate, slight perfumy floral note
Taste as aroma, merging into a black IPA, soft citrus, dark malts, some dark chocolate, moreish
Palate - soft carb, medium body, bit oily, soft sweet palate. Finish as main flavour, soft sweet malts, nice floral notes in the dark malts
Overall - Very much a soft black IPA / porter hybird. I like it.
