Cask at GBBF 2015. It pours deep amber-brown with a small white head. The nose is quite rich, woody, spiced berry, leather and light caramel. The taste is smooth, toasty, bitter-sweet, light spice, lightly tart berry, caramel, leather and dirt with a short woody finish. Light -medium body and fine carbonation. Unusual, but not bad.

Cask at GBBF 2015. It pours clear golden with a small white head. The nose is soft, grainy, doughy, grassy, soft fruits and candied peel. The taste is smooth, toasted grain, cereal, grass and pithy lemon with a dryish finish. Light-body and low carbonation. Not much to say really. Pretty basic stuff.

Cask at GBBF ’15, day 1, 11/08/15. Golden blonde with a moderately appointed off white covering. Nose is pale malt, grass, light smoke. Taste comprises tangerine, pale malt, straw. Medium bodied, fine carbonation, semi drying close. So so offering, more GB than bitter, looks and feels good but fails to deliver at the business end.

GBBF Day 1. Cask. Light haze on this deep gold beer, thin pale cream colour head. Palate is light and dry, decent fine carbonation. The pale malts bring a strange unsweet caramel! Some skunk here. Little marmalade. Light dry finish.
