Cask at the Solihull Camra Beer Festival 2012. Clear brown pour and a thin bubbly head. Some citrus notes in the aroma, but that’s not a major part of this beer. The flavour is very strange and the bitterness is different to anything i’ve tasted before. There is little on the palate, but I did enjoy drinking this beer and would order another. Serve nice and warm to maximise the flavour, but it would have ben interesting to taste it a little cooler too.

Bottle at Chriso - 25/09/12. Dark chestnut brown with a thin off-white head. Malt forward nose backed up by toffee and nuts. Taste follows nose, a little sweeter with caramel tones. Medium bodied and moderate carbonation - a decent enough drop!

Bottle thanks to Theydon_Bois at ChrisO. It pours very dark brown, with a thin beige head. The nose is caramel, wood, twig, leather, light smoke and ham. The taste is caramel, roasted malt, charcoal, cherry and light smoke, with a smooth, dry finish. Medium body and moderate carbonation. Pretty decent stuff all-round.
