Cask at Shrewsbury Aems, Stafford. Pours very dark reddish-brown with a small cream head and good lacing. Aroma is mainly alcohol with some plumy notes. In the mouth it is sweet with a slightly syrupy texture. Flavour has dark fruits, brandy and roasted malts, plus some hints of liquorice and toffee. Finish is fruity and boozy. This is rather nice.

Cask at Bakers Vaults, Stockport. This is said to be a “Black IPA” but it’s not black, by some way ! Pours copper / burgundy with minimal cream head and good lacing. There’s malts and liquorice in the aroma. Whilst in the mouth it starts off quite bitter with floral hops, dark fruits and liquorice. After a while this mellows out to be quite sweet with malts and hints of pepper and ginger. Bitterness returns in the finish. This is nice – a very interesting bunusual beer.
