Cask gravity at GBBF 2007. Gold, lasting white head. Cask conditioned lager. It’s got that sour lager yeast aroma. Good hop on end. One of the better cask lagers, bit bizarre, but a good finish.

Shared with Cab: Dark amber red with off white head. Malty, earthy, vinous, nutty, spicy, alcohol. Strong sweet & light smokey flavor. Medium bodied. Overall very well made I think. It fits the style! Great!

500 ml bottle. Cloudy orange body with a small white head. Aroma has citrus, malt and fruit. Flavor is a bit acid, grapefruit, malt and yeast. There is also some strange flavor here, it reminds me something of a strong German dobbelbock. This where then described as burning mackerel skin! I don’t know, but it’s not very pleasant. This flavor is not dominating, but enough to influence the rating negative.

(Bottle 50 cl) Pours a hazy, dark brown with an orange glow and a small, beige head. Some smokiness in the nose. Rather full-bodied with sweetish, roasted malt and a whiff of peaty smoke and some coffee accents. The bitterness is discreet. Pleasant. 030807
