Cask handpull at The Ship & Mitre, Liverpool. Gold colour, with a thin white head. Lovely hop on this. Needs a little bit more malt to back it up but good nettle spicy hop. Good.

Cask at the Wenlock Arms, London on 20th January 2010. Brown with an offwhite small head. Initial chocolate burst (UK drinkers - think Bournville); blend of citric and bitter hop aromas, a zingy mouthfeel and a very bitter aftertaste. An interesting beer.

Cask gravity at Pigโ€™s Ear BF 09. Very dark ruby, lasting thin ivory head. Roasted choc aroma. Dry malt, smells quite full. Enormously drinkable, doesnโ€™t taste of 6%. I liked it. Smooth, with hop finish, really quite bitter.
