Cask at the Pembury Tavern, London on 19th June 2009. Intensely dark, quickly diminshing magnolia-coloured head. Strong coffee aroma, roasted malt in the kick which is augmented by bitter hop notes and a hint of peppery piquancy. Goes to a long, sustained bitter finish with the roasted malt flavours remaining throughout. A delicious stout, which I enjoyed very much.

Cask, Ship and Mitre, Liverpool. Pissy gold colour with a thin white head. Sweetish aroma of melon/tropical fruit. Flavour had some nicely balanced maltiness, mingling with grassy hop. Some juicy citrus and a slight spiciness there too, leading to a dry gently lingering bitter finish. Quite interesting.

Cask at Bricklayers Arms Yorskhire Festival 09. Pale gold, lasting bubbly white head. Supposed to be sauvignon blanc-y and it is. Nelson Sauvin hops? Getting towards the end of the barrel, so little condition, but the mango/passionfruit is unmistakeable. In top condition, this would be fantastic, rich tropical fruits and drying tangy hop. Just lacks condition.

Gravity at The Doric Arch, London
Hazy blond color with a greenish hue. Light hoppy aroma. It has a soft mouthfeel, mainly for the lack of carbonation, with a grassy malt flavor, light, and ordinary bitterness. Nothing special.
