RERATE : DUE TO BEING SUBSTANTIALLY DIFFERENT FROM ORIGINAL REVIEW : Cask at Old Bell, Derby. Pours a slightly hazy pale yellow with minimal off-white head and good lacing. Aroma somewhat weak, but there are traces of melon, herbs and mango. In the mouth it is sweet but with some underlying sharpness. Flavour has tropical fruits, citrus and floral hops. Later comes hints of tangerine and a little bitterness leading to a slightly dry and fruity finish. In this format it is quite decent
ORIGINAL REVIEW : Cask at Ebenezers, Crewe. Pours a murky peach with a small foamy white head. Aroma has tropical fruits. In the mouth it starts off sweet and malty, before become quite bitter. Flavour is mainly citrus, chiefly tangerine but also hints of grapefruit. Some underlying caramel as well. Finish is slightly dry. This is OK, but not really my sort of beer. {original score 4:6:6:6:5.5 ]

Gravity cask at the 28th St Albans Beer Festival, 26/09/25.
Black topped with a tan cap.
Nose is chocolate, blueberries, mellow roast.
Taste comprises dark malts, chocolate shavings, blueberries, dried red berries, toasted brown sugar.
Medium bodied, soft carbonation, drying close.
Decent enough cask stout if running a little sweet for my liking.
