Cask-conditioned at the Cornubia, Bristol 9/5/2015. Dark brown with next to no head. Sweet, malty beer, with some berry fruits and touch of hop in the finish. As the previous review states, not a typical example of a black IPA but fine.

Cask half pint at the New Inn, Gloucester. Served a bit too warm. Hazy brown colour, moderate off-white head. Aroma of malts, nuts and malt vinegar. Malty flavour with some sweetness, and light acidic notes of English malt vinegar. Probably "off".

On tap at the Foley Arms Malvern. Mid brown with a thin head. Aroma is malt with light hops, as is the flavour. A nice light easy to drink mild beer.
