Cask at Merton Summer Beer and Cider Festival 16-07-09 Had this on the Thursday night. Pours almost black in colour with a beige head. There is a touch of smoke on the nose and also a dab of dark fruits. Taste is also a little smoky along with the dark fruits and bitter chocolate. I rather liked this and wish I could have had a bit more but there were so many others that were enticing me. A7 A3 F7 P4 Ov14 3.5

Cask-conditioned at the Bag ONails, Bristol 22/04/09. Pale gold with a slight white head. Smoky malt aroma with some sweetness and hay. Flavour began with a touch of sugar, before a big smoked malt kick and moderately bitter finish. Ok as a one-off.
