Cask-conditioned at the Cornubia, Bristol 23/07/2011. Amber coloured with a decent, off-white head. Aroma of cereal malts, some hedgerow fruit and a touch of grassy hop. Flavour began with a touch of sweetness, before some solid malts and big, lingering, bitter finish. Good.

Cask-conditioned at the Three Tuns, Bristol where this was a festival special. Chestnut brown with a decent, off-white head. Massive, herbal hop aroma, no doubt influenced by use of a ’Randall’ with some slightly roast, sweetish malts. Flavour dominated by more green hops, a touch of roastiness with some pine, leading to a bone dry finish. A brute, but pleasant nonetheless.

Cask-conditioned and enjoyed while listening to the heavy metal at the Gryphon, Bristol 15/06/2011. Jet black in colour with a decent tan head. Contrasting aroma of dark chocolate, charcoal, lime and orange blossoms. Flavour began with stout attributes of more plain chocolate and black coffee before hoppy notes of citrus, pine and grapefruit, with some roastiness in the finish. Full bodied and excellent.
