On cask at The Beer Temple, pours a cloudy dark golden orange with a small white head. Aroma brings out bready malt, light bitterness, and a touch of hops. Flavour is full of bready malt, subdued hops, and earthy fungal notes. Not hugely impressed with this. Meh.

500ml bottle from Brewers Haven. Dark, clear amber pour, thin coating of fine foamy head. Light toasty malt aroma, notes of brown bread. Taste is malty, sweet, tobacco. Small bitter bite at the finish, which lingers for a bit. Better than overall score shows. I'd love to try this on cask.

Rocky tan head stayed on a dark brown body. Sweet malt, liquorice & berries aroma. Medium bodied, smooth with a sharp back. Liquorice, malt, roasted & berry tastes with a bitter fruity finish. Decent Stout.

Cask at Churchkey: pours clear brown with a cask head. Aroma is slightly nutty and toffee. Taste is light and earthy. Slight toffee. Kind of thin. Pleasant.
