500ml bottle: BB 30th Nov 2020. Drank at home on 8th Sep 2020. Bottled conditioned, but no sediment left the bottle, although it was so dark I suppose a little my have got into my glass, the head a tanned affair. Pleasant hedgerow fruit aroma and taste with some coffee esters and flavours also to remind you it's a Stout.

Third, gravicask, at the 22nd Oxford Beer & Cider Festival. Shared with Finn. Almost black in the glass, clingy lacing, shiny naked surface. Quite inviting smell of vanilla chocolate. Hints of fruit to a dominating flavour profile of mid-sweet chocolate malts. Has got hints of roasted coffee towards the ending. Fine depth. Pretty good. (25.10.2019).

Bottle courtesy of Isobel (cheers Isobe) consumed at home, Sunday 11th November 2018 having just eaten Bobotie and also a Leek and Potato Soup for tomorrow. Pours black or thereabouts with a light beige head, soft in the mouth, the plum extract is good, just the right side of sweet v tangy. A little powdery finish, it's smooth and soft, it's a good beer.

Bottle courtesy of Isobel consumed in Frank, at Bath Marina campsite, Bath, Saturday 10th November 2018 in the company of Isobel and Berry Pours gold with a white head looks good. Some warmth, malty, lots of malt, toffee, clearly UK in style so a little leafy but also some more exotic hop but a good rough edge bitterness. Solid IPA in a UK style, some cereal, a bit of wheatiness gives this a slightly different touch. Drinks far easier than it's abv. A7 A4 T7 P4 Ov14 3.6

On handpull cask at Steel City Beer Festival 2018 - Cloudy cola looking body, very little head. Nose solid and fruity, plums all the way. Little bit of smoke there too. Taste sweet fruity, little chocolate notes. Holds up despite appearance and watery mouthfeel.

Bottle. Chatsworth Farm Shop. Hazed, glowing gold. Thin and dense, fully lacing, lasting, just off white head. Good looker. Nose has thick marmalade. Green leaf hop. Sweet flora. Some toffee malt. Taste is initially fairly sweet, with a full, grassy, leafy hop bitterness. Robust and oily on the palate. Soft carbonation. Full on, leafy bitterness to finish. Good.
