Draught. Light amber. The aroma has rye and alcohol mostly. Light spiciness. Thick body, spicy with rich maltiness. Light alcohol in the finish. Nothing exciting.

Cask special at the Taproom. Near black with no head. The aroma is like a cup of strong coffee in the morning. The taste is more balanced, still rather coffeeish, with a little bit of the porter showing through. Like they dumped some brewed coffee into the cask of beer.

Golden and smells like apple juice. Very sulphury and lactic cider with only a little bit of apple character. Wonky balance.
