Cask @ Café Beermoth, Manchester. Very dark amber with a creamy-smooth head. Wooden cask version and this is best evident in its earthy taste and aftertaste. Maple elements are light but again best evident as a sharp sweetness. Somewhat boozy.

Keg at Cloudwater. Near clear amber brown beer, small pale tan head. Airy palate, semi dry, decent fine carbonation. Airy malts, a light creamy sweetness more than offset by a little bitterish toffee. A brief flash of bitterish dried fruits. Esters and then maple that is, mercifully, not too sweet. Interesting.

Cask-conditioned at the Kings Head, Bristol 3/10/2024. Copper in colour, with a slight, off-white, head. Caramel, earthy malts, some red berry sweetness, leading to a lingering, bitter, finish with a suggestion of autumn bonfire smokiness. Enjoyable.

Cask. Wooden barrel. Brown with fluffy head. Aroma and flavour are super woody and dry. Malty and has a nice background sweetness.

Proper bitter. Nice!
