Cask at the York Tap on 7 September 2017. Sepia with thin disappearing pale tan foam and no lacing. Sweetish roasty malt aroma. Fruity in-mouth with roasty malts, and a roasty finish. Zingy zingy mouthfeel and a light body.

Bottle from Ales by Mail. Pours clear golden with a thin white head. Slight butterscotch on the nose, light malt and fruit. Taste has light bitterness, but a touch more butteriness. It’s ok I guess.

Cask @ Calans, Hebden Bridge. Light golden with a head. The honey is extremely light, but perhaps best in its nose, as such it’s bland tasting.

On cask at Woodfest 2017 Castleford - Deep red to black body, off white lacing top. Nose is smokey, some molasses, treacle, some burnt hints too. Taste is lush, really heavy but with a sweet relief of a fruity toffee. Really good.

Cask @ Whippet Inn, York. Amber with a small creamy head. It’s a malty-grainy bitter with a light rawness that lingers.

Fra cask på Teign Cellars Newton Abbot 27 Apr 17. Gyldengulgrønn. Svakt uklar. Lavt skum. Spotlacing. Lett fruktig aroma. Myk munnfølelse. Smaken vanilje. Blir tørr etter hvert. Grei.

Cask at Teign Cellars, shared with Finn. Good lacing from a low, white head. Slightly hazy golden body. Mild herbal hops on the nose. Fruity flavours of grapefruit and oily hops. Fruity bitter endnotes. Fair enough (Newton Abbot 27.04.2017).

Cask-conditioned at the Golden Ball, York 20/1/2017. Dark brown in colour, with a slight, off-white, head. Plenty of chocolate character, some toasty malts and a touch of sweetness in the gentle finish. Good.

Cask-conditioned at the York Tap 19/1/2017. Amber in colour, with a decent, off-white, head. A malty bitter, with hint of hedgerow fruit, leafy hops and moderately bitter finish. Fine.
