Cask handpulll at GBBF 2010. Gold copper colour with lasting beige head. Sparkler?? As the mouthfeel is restrained, some decent bitterness and minerality. Mineral bitter, interesting. Some creaminess.

Opaque black beer with a suddy tan head. Fresh minerally dark malt. Not bitter but quite dry. Just a light touch of licorice. Some sublte fruit in the undertone. Tastes okay but too dry.
