500ml bottle conditioned; BB Dec 2018. Obtained from the Cheese Larder, South Molton, Devon. Drank at my brothers house on 17th July 2018. Slight haze to the dark amber body, large off-white blanket of foam for a head. Malty little number this, ably backed up with some serious hop action. Malty molasses rule the nose and overall taste, the hops adding some fruity notes a fair amount of bitterness. Liked it.

Cask at Lacey's, Bideford. It pours clear amber - brown with a medium foamy white head. The aroma is sweetish toffee notes, dusty, wood, leather and earth. The taste is dry, bitter, earthy, dusty, leather, twiggy fruit, wood, astringency and a touch of spice with a very drying finish. Light - medium body and soft carbonation. Really pretty dry after a while and has some rawness to it. Saying that it is OK I suppose.

A bit toothy and chewy. Wish it was a bit more drinkable, but it is fair enough.OK.
