375ml bottle. Clear, orange, dark golden colour with small to average, frothy, half-way lasting, minimally lacing, white head. Weak, grainy and slightly strawy, pale malty aroma, leafy hoppy overtones with a touch of tea, minimalyl doughy, yeasty overtones as well. Taste is slightly grainy-bready and minimally spicy malty with some residual sweetness, minimally piney and leafy hoppy, hints of tea, a touch brown bread crust, an even weaker touch of forest honey.
Watery texture, smooth, simultaneously minimally dry palate, medium, mildly prickly carbonation.
Clean, light, drinkable - not too bad.

Gravity cask at the 34th Ealing Beer Festival 2025, day one, 09/07/2025.
I'm getting AUS tramp cider vibes just from the details ... One for all the Ockers!
Clear golden topped with a white cap that soon fizzes to the edge.
Nose is booze fumes, pear drop, varnish.
Taste comprises booze, modest apple notes, sugars, glue like qualities.
Medium bodied with bite, moderate carbonation, semi drying close with a boost offered.
Not bad for tramp juice tbh!

Tap, Town Hall Hotel. Clear amber with an eerily lasting white head. Gentle sweet grainy aroma. Thin and sweet with light weedy bitterness that’s about enough when very cold.

250ml can from BWS, Rockdale Plaza. Clear golden colour, thin white foam head that dissipates to a thin rim, and aroma of apple, syrupy, sulphur hint. Taste is sweet, appley, sugary, syrup, booze, with alittle tartness and tangy notes. Medium bodied, medium soft carbonation, drying sweet boozy finish. Quite OK

Best before Dec 12, 2011. Bottle purchased online from France 44 in Minnesota.
Ah, revisiting an old friend; I haven't tasted it in many years.
It looks to be a pitch black with a creamy +1 finger head of foam and it leaves some nice lacing. Excellent head retention during the session.
A nice roasted malt nose with under currents of chocolate, both sweet and dark. There's a nice bitter/sweet thing going on.
The taste brings the smell to my taste buds. Roasty, bitter and sweetish from the chocolate, some hoppy notes that I have tasted in quite a few Australian ales/lagers. Quite tasty and surprisingly, brings a bit of an alcohol burn.
Pretty light bodied with medium carbonation, it has an above average mouth feel. Drinkability is good despite the "burn". In years past, I found Sheaf Stout and excellent brew to experiment with black and tans. I'm glad I found this one again.
