Cask at the Bree Louise. I gather this beer was brewed especially for the Stoke Newington Literary Festival. Pours a mosly clear gold with a foamy, white head. Some nuts, tasty malts and straw in the nose. Lightly sweet with leafy bitterness, some nuts and faint plastic. Light bodied with fine carbonation. Some mild citrus in the finish, more moderate toast, and some brittle leaves. Alright.

Bottle at home in London with Lyoli. Pours a foggy, light brown with a soft, off-white head. Aroma is lots of dry, roasty coffee, subtle baking cocoa. Light to medium sweet flavor, mocha, very dry roastiness, cacao. There’s also a touch of resinous pine. Light to medium in body with fine carbonation. Sharpish, dryish finish, dry roasted coffee on the sides of the tongue, light sugar, light mocha, very bittersweet. Great beer.

Bottle from the Kernel Brewery. It pours dark brown with a thin beige head and high carbonation. The nose is grass, pine, sweet caramel, light varnish, coffee and chocolate. The taste is charcoal, caramel, grass, pine, resin, liquorice, astringent, cola, very earthy, chocolate and varnish, with a very long dry, bitter finish. An interesting take on a mild.

On tap at the Old Fountain. Opaque dark brown beer, no real head. Light palate, fairly neutral. No carbonation. Tangy dark malt. Trace of dark chocolate. A little fruity sourness. Alright but seems to lack body and condition.
