Cask at Pigs Ear 2015, day 1 - London. Pours mostly clear red-brown with a frothy, tan head. Dark bread in the nose with vague accents of chocolate. Light sweet flavor with earthy bitterness, light plastic, leather and cocoa. Medium bodied with soft carbonation; so so condition. Bittersweet chocolate to finish, with mellow roast, more earth. Overall, just OK.

On cask @ the Pilot of Mumbles. Appearance - opaque black with a nice crema head. Nose - light chocolate and some nuts and general sweet malt. Taste - more of the same. Nice creamy chocolate note. Palate - close to medium bodied with a creamy texture and a fairly elegant finish. Overall - the pick of the three beers on cask for sure.
