Cask at Pigs Ear, 2015. Amber pour with a white head. Aromas of orange peel, tangerine, lot of juicy hop in there. More tangy hop in the flavour, shed loads of sweet fruit in there. Easy going brew. Quite nice.

The taste is bitter-sweet, floral, sweet elderflower, light spice, bread and straw with a dry finish. Light - medium body and soft carbonation. OK for what it is.

500ml bottle from St Davids Food & Wine, St David, Pembrokeshire. Pours amber with a slight haze & off white head. Aroma is caramel malt. Taste is caramel with a strong pine influence. Pleasant beer, perhaps a bit malt-forward, but nice nonetheless.

500ml bottle: BBD 1 Sep 2015, poured into a UK pint sleeve on 22 Apr 2015. Obtained from a small village shop in Myddle, Shropshire. Good looking beer, clear chestnut/mahogany body with a tanned topping. Malts lead the way in the nose and taste with a pleasant hop bittering finish. Toffee flavoured with a good fruity feel. Solid and flavoursome, the 4.6% ABV suiting it’s body depth and palate nicely.
