Cask at the Devonshire Arms, Cambridge. Very dark brown and barely translucent. Flat, no head, no lacing. Coffee and vinegar (ok may not be in the best condition) but the taste makes up for it. A gentle espresso bitterness underpins the Malteaser sweetness. Palate is okay (nice body but again too flat). If this had more life to it the rating would be much higher. Still, decent.

Cask @ Dirty Dicks, Halifax. Settles a hazy copper-brown with a thick smooth head. Has a smooth drinking texture too with a light berry-sweet aroma and taste with a light bitterness too.

Cask @ Dirty Dicks, Halifax. Extremely dark with a thick creamy off-white head. It’s a very easy drinking stout with a smoothish texture that slips down the palate well. There’s roasted malt in both aroma and taste with plenty of coffee notes in both aspects that make it quite a tasty brew.
