Bottle thanks to Fergus at level 42. It pours darkest brown - black with a medium, foamy white head. The aroma is sweet, dried fruits, fruit compote, Eccles cake, plum and jam. The taste is bitter - sweet, plum, jam, fruit compote, fruit cake, dried fruits, cocoa and sweet roast with a short finish. Medium body and fine carbonation. Not a huge amount of depth, but overall ok.

Keg @ Sparrow Bier Café, Bradford. Very hazy amber-orange with a bubbly head. Slightly active in the palate, it has a good amount of banana in its nose, with this also evident alongside citrus fruit in its taste. Dry tasting.

Can at home in London - picked up in Castleton. Pours clear, reddish brown with a creamy, tan head. Nice aroma, with moderate roast, some baking cocoa, dried dark fruits. Medium sweet flavour although fairly dry, with more dried fruits, bittersweet chocolate, some earthy bitterness, light ash. Light to medium bodied with average carbonation. Well rounded on the finish, with more cocoa, mellow ash, dried and leathery fruits, faint berries. Really solid overall. There’s a lot of depth packed into this one.

Can at home in London - picked up at Peveril Stores and Bakery in Castleton. Pours lightly hazy orange-gold with a foamy, pure white head. The aroma has nicely rounded citrus fruits, some rindy lemon, grapefruit, a bit of dry pale malts, hay. Light to medium sweet flavour with grainy pale malts, pithy grapefruit, tangerine, pine needles. Light to medium bodied with average carbonation. Pretty well balanced on the finish, with more dry pale bread, mellow pale grains, restrained piney bitterness, hay, rindy lemon, grapefruit, orange. Overall, this is a pretty solid IPA.
