Can. Opaque dark brown amber beer, small tan head. Smooth palate, slightly viscous, reasonable fine carbonation. Soft rich dark malts, a serious brown sugar vibe into an estery mid, bitter bubblegum and sweeter ripe banana. Back end is pure salted caramel well blended with smooth but rich bourbon barrel soaked very ripe fruits that goes well with the strident salted caramel vibe. Light and semi dry finish. Savoury linger. Interesting, a salted caramel barleywine with a bit of a Belgo Quad estery vibe.

Can. Mitchell’s Wines. Jesus. I’ve let myself down. My family down. And my friends (if I’d got any) would be let down as well. Fucking nonsense in a glass.

Cask at Crewe Dog, Crewe. Pours a cloudy / murky apricot with a medium sized white head. Not much of an aroma – vaguely citrus and grapefruit. In the mouth it is quite sweet with oats, citrus, floral hops and some tropical fruits. Not the sort of beer I normally like, but this is decnt. The oats negate the yucky citrus somewhat.
