Hand-pulled cask ale, half-pint, shared with Finn. A clear amber coloured body, a bubbly ring to the rim of the surface, scattered lacing. Moderately malt-fruity aromas, hints of ripe fruits. Blended taste of mid-sweet malts, ripe fruits and a spicy note. Mid-dry close, malt-fruity. Satisfying last beer at the festival.
Third session at the 44th Liverpool Beer Festival, Metropolitan Cathedral Crypt.

Hand-pulled cask ale, half-pint, shared with Finn. Black in the glass, some patchwork on the surface, dotted spots on the glass. Nicely roasted, mid-sweet chocolate malts on the nose. Fine malt-driven taste of milk chocolate, dark bread and a distant note of black coffee. Slightly roasted, semi-sweet chocolate malty finish. Like it.

Hand-pulled cask ale, half-pint, shared with Finn. Near-clear late straw coloured body, filmy layer, scattered lacing. Moderate aroma of grass and orange fruit. Blended hop fruity flavours including orange and grapefruits, mid-dry pale malts beneath. Rounded hop fruity tail. Easy to drink and quite alright.

Hand-pulled cask ale, half-pint, shared with Finn. Next-to-clear golden body, filmy layer leaving dotted spots on the glass. Ripe citrus nose, scents of grainy malts. Assorted fruity flavours, including peaches and lemon, with mid-dry malts beneath. Mild fruity bitterness to the finish. Satisfying.

Beer number twelve at the Great British Winter Beer Festival 2025. The second example of the Talus hop in a brew at the event, and not as gritty this time around. Just as hoppy though.

Beer number thirteen at the Great British Winter Beer Festival 2025. Another strong-hoppy one, basically the tale of the last hour for me. Fruity nose, evident but lesser in taste.

Half-pint. Upper part lacing, beige head, warm golden body. Quite inviting on the nose, hints of caramel and ripe fruits. Fine blend of citrus and mid-sweet malty depth. Bittersweet tail. Food friendly. (Liverpool, 13.02.2025).

Half-pint, shared with Finn. Spotty lacing from a beige head, amber-reddish body. Attractive aromas of dried fruits, dark malts, and earth. Fine blended taste of spiced dried fruits, dark bread, and oak. Drying finish, long-lived with warmth from the alcohol. Likeable. (Liverpool, 12.02.2025).
