Cask-conditioned at the Commercial Rooms (JDW), Bristol 29 November 2022. Pale golden in colour with a thin, off-white, head. A sweet malty beer, with a touch of floral hops and weetabix malts, before a moderately bitter finish. So so.

Little 25cl bottle, 2005 vintage I've owned since at least 2006. Consumed Thanksgiving day 2022. No pop on the cap, pours a translucent amber, no head. Nose has caramel, malt, port, some booze, a little cardboard, cherry even. Flavors of port, some amaretto, cherry cordial, fruit cake, caramel. Oxidation went away when it had a chance to breathe. Boozy, long, sticky sweet finish.

Cask at Moon Under Water, Wolverhampton. Pours almost black with a small cream head. There’s dark fruits and roasted malts in the aroma. In the mouth it is slightly sweet and has a fruity texture plus a little smokiness. Main flavour is lashings of liquorice with some toffee and alcoholic strength. Finish is dry and smokey. Decent, but I didn’t enloy it as much as I expected. Maybe a rerate is required ?

25/8/2022. Cask at the 43rd Peterborough Beer Festival. Pours clear bright golden orange with a small bubbly white head. Aroma of zesty citrus, grapefruit, malt. Medium sweetness, light bitterness, touch of citric tartness. Moderate body, oily and watery, soft carbonation. Lacks depth but okay.
