Cask-conditioned at the Robert Fitzharding (JDW), Bedminster 1/11/2024. Near black in colour, with a tight, off-white, head. Plenty of chocolate and caramel character, with some jammy sweetness and some roasted malts in the finish. Enjoyable.

[Cask at the Back of Beyond (JDW), Reading.] A glossy dark mahogany coloured pour with a tight chocolate coloured head; rich malty caramel aroma with a little spice; taste to match and a syrupy body; then a dry spicy bitter finish with a touch of chocolate. An excellent Porter.

Cask at the Cornfield Exchange, Eastbourne. Poured a mostly clear medium amber colour with a lasting frothy white head. The aroma is sweet malt. The flavour is moderate sweet, light bitter, with a smooth, yeasty, herbal, light sweet toffee, woody hop bitter palate. Medium bodied with soft carbonation. Ok, but way too sweet for a session.

[Cask at the Hope Tap (JDW), Reading.] A hazy amber pour with a tight cream head; biscuity malt aroma; creamy in the mouth with a berry fruit taste and a bready body; then a dry finish with more tart berries. Unattractive but tasty.
