Draught, 6.1 at the Brew Dock. Cloudy copper colour. Small white head. The flavour is yeasty and caramelly. A lot like Dunkelweizen, really. Nice and bready. Slightly syrupy sweetness. Low bitterness.

The great pre GBBF bottleshare at ChrisO’s. Opaque dark brown beer, bubbly pale tan head. Palate is smooth and semi dry, reasonable carbonation. Mellow dark chocolate. Light but savoury brett. Modest dark fruits. Smooth dry finish. Fairly bitter dark malt linger. Curious but all right.
