8th August 2017
GBBF Day 1. Cask. Clear brown beer, tidy pale tan head. Palate is smooth and semi dry, reasonable fine carbonation. Tangy but mellow dark malts, trace of dark chocolate. Tangy dark fruits. Mild floral hop. Light dry finish. Nowhere hoppy enough for me, barely out of stout territory.

Cask at GBBF. It pours near black with a small beige head. The aroma is earthy, toasty, burnt treacle, molasses, Light menthol notes, liquorice and prune. The taste is dry, bitter, earthy, charred, wood, peppery spice, cacao nib, tannin and earth with a drying finish. Medium body and soft carbonation. More like a basic stout than a cda.

Bottle from Tesco. Dark amber with an extremely thick and active bubbly head. Inoffensively spiced, but not very flavoursome, it has a metallic-hoppy taste with a more stated metallic nose. Has a light sweetness.
