Cask handpull at The Tyburn Spoons Marble Arch. First one out of the pipes so although others say this is sweet I had a touch of sourness to go with the lactose. Some sweetness on the chocolate flavour. Badly served.

Cask at the Monk’s Retreat, Reading. Ruby-black with a loose beige head. Plums and blackcurrant compete with soot amongst a creany texture. A little black coffee in the finish, but overall a pleasant and surprisingly fruity stout.
