Cask at the Earl of Essex, 04/11/14. Clear golden with minimalist off white spotting and edgeing. Nose is apricot, bitter orange, straw, light fart, melon. Taste comprises orange, mandarin, perfumed notes, straw, light hop presence. Medium bodied, moderate carbonation, semi drying close. So so affair, pretty 1D, too many far superior IPA’s out there today to bother with this one again.

Bottle. Golden beer with a fizzy bubbly body and a very light head. The aroma is dry with some hops, and the flavour is bitter with some hops and a mild degree of malty and yeastiness. Overall a reasonable dry and bitter beer. ---Rated via Beer Buddy for iPhone

Keg at the CP&K, Pimliville, 15/10/14. Black with a decent tan covering that stays to make conversation. Nose is sweet chocolate, dark malts, toffee fudge, sweet aromas but in a nice way akin to chocolate sauce being melted. Taste comprises light roast, Bourbon biscuits, earthy cocoa. Medium bodied, fine carbonation, semi drying close with sweet licks. Decent stuff, fairly sweet but a little roast and bitterness keeps this drinkable.

Cask dispensed at CASK Pub & Kitchen, Pimlico, London on 10th October 2014. Ruby-to-black with loose, pale tan foam. Roasty malts and hop zest in aroma. Richly roasty in-mouth with tangy citrus notes and a hint of smoke. A long-lasting, satisfying hoppy, roasty finish. Engaging texture and plenty of body. Superb.
