7/11/2025. Cask at the 13th Beccles Beer Festival. Nice colour pour but not much life. Aroma is sweet fruits, milky coffee, ashy, vanilla, chocolate, berries. Quite sweet with light roasted bitterness and tart notes. Moderate body, clammy, low carbonation. More tartness to finish. Not completely sure on this.
