Cask at GBBF 2006. A dark brown beer with a huge brown head. The aroma is spicy malty - a bit weird spicyness. The flavor is sweet malty again with the weird spicyness, leading to a dry bitter and woody end.

Cask at GBBF 2006. A hazy deep red beer with a beige head. The aroma is sweet with light notes of roasted malt and berries. The flavor is very sweet and very malty, combined with lighter notes of berries. The body is thin. A bit like a berry juice, but good as a session beer.

Dark brown with fast dissipating tan head. Fruity aroma, plummy and vinuous and malty taste with a lingering dry finish.

Bottle. Dark brown with a tan head that fell back rapidly aroma bizarrely like coca-cola rich malty taste with raisin fruit and a dry coffee finish. A strange combination that comes together surprisingly well.
