Cask-conditioned at the Swan Inn, York 5/10/2018. This is the house beer with blackberries added to it. Clear gold in colour, with a tight, white head. Aroma of tart berries , sweetish malts and some leafy hops. Flavour had more crisp malts, a touch of fruit and the finish was moderately bitter. Enjoyable.

Cask @ Crowd Of Favours, Leeds. Clear golden with a thick frothy head. Has a mildish berry-fruitiness in its taste, but an easy drinking texture, and is more stated in its nose.

500ml bottle, bought at the brewery and poured into an Abbot Ale glass tankard at home on 21st Aug 2018. Bottle conditioned, so poured carefully, deep ruby body, huge foaming tanned head. Aroma held both coffee and chocolate esters within the malty nose. The taste also leaning towards coffee and chocolate flavours, mild liquorice notes once you start searching for them (after reading the rear label on the bottle). It's a nice easy drinking Porter with a robust rather than smooth body feel, liked it.
