[Cask at the Alehouse, Reading.] A dark chestnut pour with a tight beige head; aroma of brown sugar and raisins; earthy malt taste to start, then some sultanas and sweetness before a dry finish with a woody bitterness. A nice dark bitter.

Cask at Smithfield, Derby. Pours a very dark reddish-brown with a small cream head. Has a nice creamy, roasty aroma with vanilla prominent. Quite sweet in the mouth, with dark fruits and liquorice featuring. Eventually, some vanilla and rraces of bitter coffee come through as well. Finish is quite fruity. Nice to have a stout with some stout character for a change !

[33cl can from Moss End Garden Centre, Warfield, Berks.] A hazy sraw coloured pour with a loose white head; tropical fruit aroma; juicy tropical fruit taste with mango and pineapple; and a strong bitterness to balance the sweetness. Enjoyable.

Bottle ordered from A Hoppy Place, Windsor. Aroma had coffee, dark berries, cream. Darkest opaque brown. Foamy beige head. Initial sour streak before bitterness comes through. The sour berries remain at the forefront with underlying coffee. Gravy tang appears into the finish. Medium bodied. Slice to creamy. Average-fizzy carbonation. Long dry astringent finish. I like. No need for additional flavarings.
