Cask at the Hanging Bat. It pours cloudy deep red with a small off-white head. The nose is earth, toast, red berry, light jam and some sweet vinous notes. The taste is bitter-sweet, toasty, caramel, red fruits, jam, light spice and wood with a dry finish. Medium body, fine carbonation and foamy mouth-feel. Decent.

Cask at the Hanging Bat. Pours clear red-brown, thick off-white head. Aromas are straight-off nuts and red fruit. Hazelnuts. Taste is sweet, nutty, rich, jammy dodger. Maybe a tad too much nuttiness on the finish, but a lovely beer.

Bottle from Cornelius. Hazy orange body with a thin white head that gradually fades. No lacing. Aroma of apricot, peach and pineapple. Flavour of Danish pastry, orange, pineapple tart and yeast. Medium body with an almost chewable mouthfeel. Soft fizz. Well balanced and sweet - more than one bottle would be quite heavy going though. This bottle was 6.3% ABV.

Cask at Hanging Bat. It pours cloudy golden with a thick white head. The nose is banana bread, doughy, light spice, straw, ice cream and apple/pear. The taste is bitter-sweet, banana split, toffee, dough, melon, wood, some alcohol and light toast with a warming finish. Medium+ body, fine carbonation and foamy mouth-feel. Certainly not a bitter, bit not sure what it is.... Banana beer???

Tasting at Bruce’s pad. Thanks to Scopinho. Almost opaque dark brown beer, small pale tan head. Light airy palate, fine carbonation. Airy dark malts. Tangy marmite come umami. Touch of dark fruits. Airy finish. Nice enough.
