Hand-pulled from cask at the Chorlton Beer Fest no.8. Firm bubbly, beige head. Pitch back body. Oatmeal and dusty hops to the nose. Anise, chocolate and oatmeal in a rather well blended flavour profile. Notes of tart fruits towards the ending. Satisfying. Shared with Stefan and Elisabeth at the festival, 06.07.2012.

Very hoppy on the nose and similar hoppiness in its taste, but a delightful one.
