Keg at Bottle Shop Pop-Up EC1. It pours darkest brown with minimal head. The nose is toasty, earthy roast, filter coffee, cocoa, dirt, light sweetness and not much else. The taste is toasty, weak roast, filter coffee, dull cocoa, mild acidity, umami and meaty notes with a dry finish. Light-medium body, fine carbonation and watery body. Wishy washy stuff. Far from Bullfinch’s best... Meh.

@the brewery-tap: Very deep amber coloured with a ruby sheen and a stable tanned head; moderate to solid fruity-toasty nose with a robust herbal-hoppy background; moderate to solid bitter flavour, subdued and well hidden sweetness still detectable, medium to full bodied; lingering dry bitter and roasty finish. A solid brew…

Keg at the Bottle Shop DoCaSA pop-up. Pours clear brown with a creamy tan head. The aroma holds tangy dark malts, lightly aged coffee, berries. Light-medium sweet flavor with distracting tang, faint cocoa, earth, brine. Medium bodied with fine to average carbonation. More tart berries and other dark fruits in the finish, some vague chocolate, faint coffee. So so.

Bottle from Cotteridge Wines, Birmingham. Poured a murky dark brown with a big frothy light tan head. The aroma is grassy hop, pine needle. The flavour is moderate bitter with a big crisp refreshing grass, spice, citrus hop palate and a lingering bitter finish. Medium bodied with very lively carbonation. Lots of sediment I have to say which didn’t taste too pleasant.
