Cask in a marquee at the Warwick Raceway Family Festival. Didn't make great notes but it was a light cloudy amber pour, small off-white head. Quite a malty beer with notable caramel character, light fruitiness, quite moreish. Enjoyed it.

500ml bottle from the brewer. Best before 07/24, batch 23.24. Poured a slightly hazy dark brown colour with a short-lived, fizzy off-white head. The aroma is roasted malt, red berry fruits. The flavour is moderate sour and liqourice bitter, with a dry, roasty, ashtray, tart plum palate. Medium to light bodied with soft carbonation. Chocolate and coffee? Sweetness? Sadly not in the beer I’ve just drunk. The tart fruit is more likely to be a mild infection. This is a poor poor Porter which ended up as drainpour. Really disappointed.

Draft at Barge & Quarterdeck. Hazy orange, white head. Aroma is hoppy, mildly fruity. Taste is the same really it's pleasantly hoppy, mild tropical fruits, very safe and inoffensive with a mild bitter finish.

Bottle from Warwick Real Ales. Appearance - overfill, so literally right under the crown cap. Then a slow gush started. Poured ok with a proportionate head - amber body, off-white head. Nose - grainy and a bit dishcloth. Taste - more dishcloth. Hard going this one. Palate - close to medium bodied, creamy texture. Dry-ish finish. Overall - generally challenging.

500ml bottle from Leamington Wine Company. Shared with Finn. Pours a large, rocky white head, fair lacing, hazy golden body. Grassy smell with citric notes. Grassy hops and grainy fruits to the taste buds. Ends mid-dry with distant bitterness. Soft in the mouth. Quite nice for the low abv. (Hotel room, Birmingham 03.02.2020).

Delt med Rune på rom 410 Premier Inn Waterloo, Birmingham. Gylden. Uklar. Høyt kremaktig skum som daler sakte. Klaselacing. God sitrusaroma. Vel mye kullsyre. Smaken fersken & sitrusfrukt. Forsiktig bitter avslutning. Veldig bra ut fra styrken.
