Keg @ The Australia, Porthmadog. Pours black with a small, creamy tan head. Smoke and dark fruits in the aroma. Taste hits you surprisingly with some old man tobacco pouch, blackberries, smoke, musty barstool, then more tobacco. Rather strange.

On cask at the Armoury. Appearance - amber with a decent head. Nose - orangey very orangey. Taste - more orange with a porridge thing going on at the back. Palate - close to medium bodied with a tangy texture and a long dry tangy finish. Overall - the taste isn’t exciting but it’s balanced.

50cl bottle from a Londis store in Sunningdale. Pale amber with a loose cream head; the aroma has grains and citrus; rather thin in the mouth with a light malty body; and a fresh grassy bitterness. Pleasant, but not really a premium bitter.

On tap in Ye Olde Fighting Cocks, Oakengates Shropshire on 2nd Jan 2016. Poured an amber/gold, on top a thin white head. Aroma was mainly malt based with a fruit undertone. Taste was sweetish caramel and toffee like. Some citrus notes came through into the flavouring but no real bitterness from the hop content. My last beer of the evening.
