Cask at Craft Beer Co., London. Clear pale nut brown. Nutty, roasty aroam. Mid sweet with clean mouthfeel. Heavy hazelnut flavour. This flavour is quite nice in itself, but it is the only one there, making it highly one-dimensional.

Cask at Pigs Ear 2011, London. Pours clear brown with a bubbly, off-white head. Pine and dirt hop aroma. Light to medium sweet flavor, floral, with some toast and mild pine. Light to medium bodied with fine carbonation. Great condition, great balance. Crisp bitter kick to finish, more pine, some earth, toasty malts, mild sweetness. This is truly superb. There’s more character and nuance in this beer than some beers of twice or thrice its strength. Great work.
