Gravity cask at the Stourbridge beer festival. Pours black with a thin head. Aroma was roast malt and blackberries. Taste was watery to start with a coffee aftertaste. A little thin.

Mason & Taylor Hop Festival. Clear gold beer, no real head. Does have a mildy crisp palate, semi dry. Interesting beer! he hops are initially a little sour. Guava and papaya with a drop of mango thrown in. Rapidly gets sweeter towards the crisp dry finish which has some minerals. Intriguing!
