Cask-conditioned, on gravity, at the Commercial Rooms (JDW), Bristol March 2023. Golden in colour with a slight, white, head. A little citrus character, touch of butter, caramel, light malts and a dryish finish. Ok.

Bottle from Morrisons Supermarket, Moston. Extremely dark with a light-brown head. Has an interesting red-berry winter style fruitiness, with a sweetness, but not particularly sweet - feeling a bit like a 'parma violet' candy. This is its creamy element as stated on the bottle.

Vintage 2013. 500ml bottle with box. No fajne ale te 10 lat specjalnie nic nie wniosly. .mozna by je przechowywac jeszcze dluzej jak sugeruje info na kartoniku. Ale 10 lat to i tak sporo. Wyglad to srednia piana, wyglad ladny czerwona mglista intensywna barwa, nie brazowa, ale taka czerwona, jasna. Pachnie truskawkami, poziomka i miodem kwiatowym. W smaku barley wine ale jakies malo intensywne, delikatniejsze niz inne, co nie zmienia faktu ze jest dobre, po prostu czasami inne takie tez fajnie skonsumowac zwlaszcza do deski serow, na ktorej znalazly sie:Pecorino Chilli, Ricotta Salata-Lamercantile i francuski Chabert

Bottle. 2013 vintage. Shared at a neighbour's Hogmanay party 2022/23. Pours clear reddish amber with a thin beige head. Aromas of sherry and nuts, Christmas spice. Taste is light sweet, nutty and fruitcake also. Really nice. Might haved been helped by being under jeevan's floorboards for the last 8 years. Who knows?

The taste is dry, bitter - sweet, chewy, toothy, toffee, caramel, splash of cola, dried fruits, fruit cake, wood, nutty, light spice, leafy vibes and earth with a drying finish. Medium body and soft, but we'll appointed carbonation. Like this quite a bit. Flavourful and balanced. Nice.

Half-pint, 6 % abv, festival cask ale at Lord Palmerston. Near-clear red-brownish body, filmy layer, spotty lacing. Dried fruity nose, hints of caramel malts, inviting. Blended taste of stewed fruits and caramel malts. Mid-sweet malty ending, dry. Rounded mouthfeel and fine bodied. Pretty decent. (JDW). (Southsea 18.10.2022).
