Light copper color, small vanishing off-white head. Light exotic fruity aroma. Light to medium bodied. Exotic fruity flavor has passion fruits or/and kiwi fruit leading to dry finish. Low carbonation. Fruity green apples too. This brew has some interesting details, but overall it is just an ordinary bitter.

Clear golden color, small steady off-white head. Aroma has hints of honey, exotic fruits and citrus. Light body. Sweetish, almost honeyish maltyness with exotic fruity hoppyness: mango, strawberries. Short sweet finish. Probably the first beer I’ve had with Marynka hops.

(Cask at Gallows Real Ale Festival 2011) The beer poured golden and clear. Its head was small and white. Aroma had molassess and fruitiness. Palate was medium bodied and dryish. Flavours were fruitiness, hops, pine resin, mildly sweetness and medium bitterness. Aftertaste was bitter and midly sweet. Nice clean brew with not too weak flavours.

Cask@ The Knott Bar, Manchester. Dense dark brown looks with a lingering mid sized tan head and some decent lacing. Enticing aroma with some roasted character evident in addition to notes of nettle, booze and chocolate. Smooth, rich and very tasty flavour which had great poise, and showed similar qualities to the nose along with some fruitiness and hop towards the finish. Hugely drinkable kick ass porter.

Cask at the Wellington, Birmingham on 28th December 2010. Copper ale with thin white head. Rather fruity aromas, berry fruits in-mouth with a few spices; hops more a background feature. Finish on the sweet side. Pleasant and drinkable.

Cask, The Old Bridge Hotel, Holmfirth. Darkish copper looks with a mid sized white head. Malt driven with some hoppage in the nose and flavour. Is this supposed to tatste of nettles ? Didn’t pick up on that really. Bitter finish. Drinkable but in no way exciting. As a footnote , Mark E Smith was drinking in here with the rest of The Fall prior to playing at the Picturehouse next door which is probably more interesting than this beer.

Cask, handpump at The Hop Pole, Aylesbury, Buckinghamshire, 22.11.10 Pours gold with no discernible head, there is a slight haze to this. There was a slight toast aroma not sure where that came from but I certainly got some toast as opposed to a crisp clean hoppy nose I was expecting. Bitter in the mouth, touch of soapy hops, in fact this is really quite bitter. Fine. A6 A3 T7 P3 Ov13 3.2

Cask at the Rake, London. Pours a clear amber with a soft white film. Subtle malt and fruit aroma with some floral hops. Lightly sweet and biscuity with some earthy bitters. Light to medium in body with average carbonation. Finishes with strong, dirty and lingering bitterness. Good.
