Pours a dark brown black colour with a red tint and a foamy beige head. Aroma of chocolate, coffee, and a little fruit. Roast malt, chocolate and coffee flavours, again some dark fruit and a dryish bitterness. Creamy in the mouth and a very moreish.

500ml bottle: BBD end of Nov 2017. Poured into an ’Old Speckled Hen’ badged vase shaped pint glass at home on 28th Oct 2016. Looks good on pouring, clear and clean amber bodied, the white head staying firm initially, then fading quickly to a wisp and collar: pity. Malty front with a light bitter, hoppy finish. This is OK, mild caramel aroma and taste followed by a pleasant hop bitterness. Nothing to set your taste buds alight, but fine from start to finish.

Cask @ JDW Montgomery’s Tower, Shrewsbury. Pours gold with small white head. Aroma is fresh, fruity, hoppy. Taste continues with fresh fruity citrus nestled alongside its pale malt base. Nice.

Cask at the Queen Hotel (JDW), Aldershot. Amber with a thin white head that laces the glass nicely; sweet orange juice aroma; sweet orange taste with a sour grainy body; and a sweet biscuity finish with some orange citrus zest. Lacking any real bitterness.

Playhouse Spoons. Gravicask off the rear counter! Hazy gold beer, patchy pale cream colour head. Palate is light, semi dry, modest fine carbonation. Light malts. Tangy dried fruits. Some orange and apple. Mild floral. Dry finish. Mild bitter linger. A bit wonky.

Cask at Canary Wharf Spoons. It pours clear golden - amber with a medium white head. The aroma is floral, hay, biscuit and stone fruits. The taste is pretty sweet and granny upfront, biscuit, floral, spice, lemon peel, with a bitter - sweet finish. Medium body and soft carbonation. Perhaps a touch sweet overall. A fair golden ale, but it wouldn’t stand out in a crowd.
