Cask at GBBF '18, day 4, 10/08/18. Extremely dark mahogany brown with a decent beige cap. Nose is tangy dark fruits, Burton snatch, eggy notes, brown bread. Taste comprises biscuit malt, dried fruits, stewed fruits, tangy notes, stale brown bread. Medium bodied, soft carbonation, semi drying close. Not the best ... eggy nose is never a win for me.
