Can thanks to Stuu666. Appearance - murky brown with a beige head. Nose - sweet spice, marzipan and cakey. Some white chocolate. Taste - some sweet but a bit astringent. Palate - medium bodied, dry finish. Overall - ok. A bit weird.

Gravity cask at the Blue Boar, Leicester. Mid-gold and clear with a frothy white head. Big Mosaic aroma of blueberry and stone fruit. Tastes sweet but it's short-lived. The finish is short and fairly watery, not impossibly so but it's a little disappointing. So marks off for that, but it's still an excellent pale.
