Handpull cask at the Maypole, Cambridge. Strong iced tea brown, clear with a film of off-white head. Oak chips, milk chocolate, hyssop, chestnut in the aroma. Doggedly bitter taste offset only slightly by the nutty maltiness. Long intense bitter finish. Thin body (and a bit flat). Verdict: not perfect but a bloody fine brown. I love this brewery and jump at the chance to try their beers when I see them.
