Cask-conditioned, on gravity, at Swansea Beer Festival 25/8/2018. Golden in colour, with a slight, white, head. An easy drinking lager style beer, with some a hint of lemon, crisp malts and a pleasantly bitter finish. Good.

Cask-conditioned, on gravity, at the Great Welsh Beer & Cider Festival, Cardiff 21/9/2017. I believe 'Revolver' is a series of beers, but no further info was provided. This version was 3.8% and medium brown, with some citrus hops, bready malts and a moderately dry finish. Good.

1st December 2015
Pigs Ear Day 1. Cask. Almost opaque black - brown beer, small bubbly pale tan head. Palate is light, semi dry and has modest fine carbonation. Roasty bitter dark malts, some floral bitterness and tangy dark fruits underneath. Dry finish with a tangy bitter linger. Clean but just another roasty tangy stout.

Cask at Pig’s Ear 2015. It pours near black with a small, bubbly beige head. The nose is soft, toasty, earthy, charred wood, mild acidity, coffee grounds, cardboard, liquorice and toasted sesame seeds. The taste is toasty, some acidity, earthy roast, charred wood, coffee, umami and toasted sesame with a dry, toasty finish. Light - medium body and fine carbonation. Pretty simple and a touch thin. So-so.
