Cask at the Fat Cat, Sheffield on 6th March 2026. Crystal clear gold with shallow white foam and full lacing. Malty aroma. Tangy fruits and nutty malts in-mouth with a rich fruit transient, and a finish of maltiness with ascending bitterness. Velvet smooth mouthfeel and a light to medium body.

Cask at CPK, Pimlico on 14th January 2026. Deep inky sepia black with a pale tan foam and full lacing. Velvety roastiness in aroma. Coffee, bitter chocolate, aniseed and candied fruits in-mouth and a roasty malt finish that grows bitter. Aniseed line persists. Emgaging mouthfeel and a fair amount of body. Interesting and enjoyable.

Dark opaque brown. Thin frothy foamy beige head. Aroma is spicy- almost Indian quisine-esque. Flavourwise it's bitter with a light spicy streak. Light-medium bodied. Slick. Soft-fizzy carbonation. Long dry somewhat astringent finish.

The barman was hoping I didn't order this one, there's not much left in the barrel of this once a year brew and he wants to get a last one in after his shift ends! I can see why, it's smooth, crisp, good-looking and flavoursome. The parkin element isn't particularly stated, but its dark-maltiness is very good.
