Cask at Smithfield, Derby Pours a hazy dark reddish-brown with a small cream head. Malts and a hint of clotted cream in the nose. Taste is basically berry fruits. I guess blackberries and blueberries must be in there, but I couldn’t distinguish them individually. Overall sweetish texture. Finish is fruity with some liquorice. Nice, but a bit too fruity for me.
