Bottle. Rubber aroma with apple. Malty, slightly hopbitter flavor with caramel, pear and rubber. Bought in Cumbria and drunk at home. Maybe this beer doesn't travel well.

Many thanks to simontomlinson for this bottle. Smooth dry malty beginning. Round and deep, caramelly with not much bitterness. Smooth with grainy hints, sessionable but a bit one-dimensional with hints of sweetness in the end.

Cask at 37th Fleetwood Beer & Cider Festival. Shared with Finn. Jet black in the glass, beige bubbly head, dotted spots on the glass. Dried fruity nose, hints of raisin. Mixed taste of chocolate malts and dried fruits. Ends semi sweet and slightly roasted. Fine depth to it. Pretty nice. (07.02.2019).
