Cask @ The Hebden (formerly The Pub), Hebden Bridge. Extremely dark clear red with a glow. Understated stout, a bit more like a porter, but decent enough.

Handpull cask at the Kings Head, Leicester. Dark brown with just a little translucency.small khaki head. Smells of espresso grounds and bitter cooking chocolate. Taste starts fairly sweet but there's intense bitterness underneath. Incredibly watery body with no carbonation to speak of. It's okay, starts out well but has little substance.

York Beer Festival 2023. Darker hazy golden in appearance. In terms of texture it doesn't feel its strength, but has a fuller hoppy-fruity taste with a bitterness.

Skipton Beer Festival 2023. Black in colour. Its coffee influence makes up its flavour dominating its roasted malt aroma and taste, in a good way of course, feeling a lot fuller than its strength might suggest.

Skipton Beer Festival 2023. Golden, and mostly clear although there's a very light haze to the brew. Ale textured with some lager qualities including its aroma. It has a sweetness too and is quite crisp.

Cask at Shrewsbury Arms, Stafford. Pours a very dark reddish-brown with a small foamy cream head and good lacing. The aroma is full of chocolate and roasted malts, plus a hint of coffee. In the mouth it is slightly sweet with quite a watery texture. Main flavours again are chocolate and roast malts, plus traces of aniseed, cola and lemon. Slight bitterness in the finish. It’s reasonable – just not very exciting.
