Cask gravity at Fat Cat, Norwich. This batch is at 4.9% It pours darkest brown with a decent beige head. The aroma is bitter - sweet, milk chocolate, maltesers and earthy roast. The taste is pretty bitter upfront, roasted malt, peppery spice, charred pine, cacao nibs and some underlying dark fruit notes. The finish is lingering and dry. Pretty nice overall.

Draught at Fat Cat Tap. It pours hazy pale green with no head. The aroma is mellow, quite savoury, earthy, pear skin and a touch of sherbet. The taste is smooth, very sweet, sugary, pear juice, touch of ginger, pear skin with a short, sugary finish. Medium bodied and flat. Really sweet and sugary. Not at all what I had hoped for. Pretty shit.
