Half pint, cask at The White Horse, Parson’s Green. Patchy off-white head, decent lacing. Deep, dark amber coloured body. Aroma of dark caramel, mid-sweet fruits beneath. Malt driven taste of nuts, caramel and earth joined by dried fruits. Slightly jam-like impression. A bite of malt bitterness to the ending. Medium bodied. Nice and tasty (London 28.09.2014).

Cask at the haymarket. Pours clear red brown, thick off-white had. Aromas of dried fruit and light spice. Taste is sweet and fruit cakey. Slightly sticky finish. Ok.

Cask@HBF2014. Deep amber colour, small white head. Aroma is fruity, some mild toasted notes as well as some wooden things. Flavour is fruity, wooden, mild roasted notes along with some smoked wet wood. Pleasant, even though I was confused if it actually was Tarmac Tipple being served, as it wasn’t all too porterlike... Yet the staff at the HBF bar said it is.
