Cask gravity at Haddenham Beer Festival, Haddenham, Bucks, 05-07-08 Pours black with no head. Coffee and smoky nose, unlike others here I was very surprised by the bitterness and lack of sweetness, also got the taste of coffee granules in my mouth, I really liked this.

Cask gravity at Reading BF 08. Black with dark brown edges, thin beige. It’s quite a bit of ashtray. Bit smokey. Bit grainy, bit dry. Peaty even. It’s not bad. Going a bit flat in condition maybe.
