Cask Small, yellow rim left, deep brown beer. Wood, liquorice, carbon, but little smokiness. Smokiness appears in the flavour, sulphury, as from stricken match, but still very discreet. Wood and carbon, still discreet. At least get the "smokiness" right in order to beef it up.

From cask at Charlies. Pours hazy yellow with a small white head. Light citrus fruity hops aroma. Sweet fruity hops flavoured. Mild sweetend and quickly going into a more dry and bitter flavour. Lingering fruity hops flavoured into a dry and spiced finish. Smooth, crisp and easy.

50cl bottle from Sainsburys. Amber with a fast fading white head leaving a rather flat looking drink; aroma has dusty hops and some cereal; citrus flavour but rather sweet; leaving a floury taste of under-cooked pastry.
