CBF07 sample from bottle. Pours brown/amber. Aroma is sweet raisins. Flavour is very malty taking the raisin flavours deep into the malt and they disappear in a dry finish.

Cask gravity at Planet Thanet BF 2007. Black colour with ruby edges, disappearing head. Thinnish aroma. Not a lot of intense flavours. Some roasted malts, but just a very easy drinking dark beer.

Cask handpull at Folkestone Wetherspoons. Gold, thin off white head. Quite a fruity golden bitter, nice citrus peachy finish, in fact the citrus hop finish grows after the final swallow. Aroma of subtle peach/nectarine which is lovely. Quite hard water in mouth.

Bottled as Coop Gold Miner. Pours clear, dark golden with a dense off-white head. Some roasted notes, caramel, malt and hops in the aroma. The flavor has bitterness at first, then there’s malt. Medium body and a hoppy finish with some anis. Decent beer. (061027)
