Cask at Smithfield, Derby. Pours a very dark reddish-brown with minimal off-white head. There’s roasted malts and nuts in the aroma. In the mouth it is sweet with a somewhat watery texture, and a mainly malty flavour. Plus traces of caramel, spices and biscuits. Finish is slightly bitter and dry. It’s reasonable.

Bradford Beer Festival 2024. Very dark black-brown appearance. This was the 4.5% chocolate hazelnut edition. Roasted, with chocolate more evident than its nut in both aroma and taste, it's a tasty dark malt cask brew.

Cask at the Fat Cat, Sheffield on 14th February 2024. Clear gold with shallow whitish foam and scant lacing. Grassy hop aroma. Rich grassy bitterness in-mouth and a finish of zesty citrus and grassiness. Light body and a zingy mouthfeel. How beer should taste! Exquisite

Cask @ The Hebden (formerly The Pub) Hebden Bridge. Clear golden with a creamy head. Only just tapped so told will probably be at its best in a day or so. Hoppy at my time of drinking with light tropical fruit notes evident, verging on candy-sweet. Has a bitterness in its finish.

Cask @ Fox And Goose, Hebden Bridge. Black with an off-white head. Certainly a hoppy stout, although not at Black IPA levels. Has some roasted malt character.

Cask at Smithfield, Derby. Pours a very dark reddish brown with a small tan head and some lacing. The aroma is mainly roasted malts plus a hint of mushrooms. Roast malts again to the fore in the mouth, where it fluctuates between slightly sweet and a little bitter – leading to a bittersweet finish ! Liquorice and hints of vanilla in the flavour too. This is decent enough if a little watery.

Cask @ Fox & Goose, Hebden Bridge. Clear brighter golden with a head. Fairly fruity edging towards juice like, but there's still a good hoppiness available in here too.
