Cask at Hand in Hand Brighton. It pours black with a medium tan head. The nose is roasty, coffee, charcoal, ash, treacle, maple and permanent marker pen. The taste is bitter-sweet, mellow roast, coffee, earth, cocoa, maple, treacle and toast with a dry, bitter finish. Medium body and soft carbonation. Interesting, flavoursome and well balanced. Decent stuff.

Cask/GD at the 14th Egham Beer Festival at the EUSC, 28/03/13. Mid black with a thin tan head. Nose carries a big dose of maple syrup, roast malt, sugars. Taste comprises roast malt, syrup, brown sugars, maple syrup pancakes. Medium bodied, fine carbonation, dry and fruity in the finish. Decent stuff - maybe a little oversweet though.
