Has a heavy smoked character, most obvious in its aftertaste although itโ€™s not shy in its aroma as well. There are some slight fruit notes evident though and itโ€™s dark ruby in colour with a small head.

Cask at George on the strand. It pours clear brown with a small white head. The nose is wood, smoke, hp sauce, Worcestershire sauce and light vinegar . The taste is wood, varnish, leather, light plastic, decent bitterness and faint smoke with a dry finish. Medium body and soft carbonation. Unusual smell. So-so.

It is dry in the palate and does also have a fruity hoppy taste. Easy to drink. Aroma is a touch grassy but the fruits are also evident here. Golden with a a small head.

Cask at the Moon on the Square (JDW), Feltham. An attractive copper colour with a loose cream head; rather yeasty aroma - this is what marks out the Belgian style to me; full bodied, dry and grainy in the mouth but also sweet and fruity at the same time - defintely a beer to sip and savour; then a really dry finish. Pretty good stuff.

Gravity dispense at the 1st Runnymede Beer Festival - 08/09/12. Clear golden with no head. Sweet caramel, orange rind and a little faint whiff of grapefruit. Grapefruit also in the flavour, orange, citrus, light malt. Medium bodied with low carbonation leading to a dry finish. This beer grew on me, would like to try it on cask as opposed to the end of the day at a BF!

Smokey, roasted malt aroma. Very thin, lacks body. Some coffee and malt flavours are there but not carried well.
