Keg @ Drink? Hebden Bridge. Deeper amber with a small head. Its regular in design and taste with a crispness from being keg dispensed that improves its texture.

Gravity cask at the Blue Boar, Leicester. Dark brown with a loose beige head. Chocolate, yeast extract and coffee overtones in the nose, with earthy malt. Bittersweet in the taste, turning to a more standard bitter in the finish. Body's a bit thin but that's okay. A tasty traditional porter.

Cask @ Drink? Hebden Bridge. Pale golde with a creamy head. It’s a hoppy ale with light fruits. Not a distinctive pale ale, but easy enough drinking.

Can – gift from a friend (suspect bought in Keswick). This had been stored in my “cellar” for several weeks, but was still very lively when poured. [ Strangely can seemed to be much colder than cellar temperature as well ]. Anyway, pours very dsark reddish brown with a creamy head that soon dissipates. Not much nose – I can smell the aluminium can more ! Typically porterish malt, toffee and chocolate notes dominant at first, but later acidic flavours like pear and cough mixture start coming through. Soft carbonation with a drying finish. Pleasant but not outstanding.
