Cask at the Hope Tap (JDW), Reading. Bright golden amber with a tight cream head; sweet malty aroma; soft chewy toffee taste with some treacle; then a dry finish with a lingering herbal bitterness. Satisfying.

Bottle, vintage 2010 enjoyed January 2015. Pours deep dark brown, with an ever so slight reddish hue, and as good as no head. Aroma is sweet and intense, with dark malts and toffee, and loaded with dark fruity esters and notes of madeira. Medium to light body, with a touch of carbonation. Flavour is sweet roasted malts, with raisins, prunes and figs, as well as cocoa, tobacco, nuts and oak barrels.
