Cask conditioned at the Inn on the Green, Bristol 25/4/07. Pale gold with almost no head. Some gentle hops in the aroma followed by flavours of apples and citrus. Not bad as a session beer.

(Cask at Akkurat, Stockholm) Dark brown, mahogany, colour with frothy beige head. Malty nose with fruity notes of wild berries and ripe cherries. Malty taste with berries, chocolate and hints of coffee. Initial malty sweetness gives away for a drier finish with balanced notes of earthy hops. Chewy and smooth mouthfeel. Nice one.

Cask at GBBF 2006. A dark yellow beer with a rim of beige head. The aroma is very lightly hoppy, while there is much more power in the flavor, with strong notes of aroma hops which gives it notes of grass - as a really fresh hoppy beer. The end has an OK bitterness to it.

Bottled. Pours clear, deep copper-colored with a small beige head. The aroma starts hoppy, then a nice maltyness comes through. The flavor is malty as well, with a metallic bitterness, and it finishes with malt and a nice hop-level. Thin-bodied, session-ale. A decent beer. (070216)

Cask at The Back of Beyond (JDW), Reading.Wow! A lustrous dark ale with an off-white head; a spicy, malty aroma; creamy, smooth and dry in the mouth with lots of chocolate malt, and pleasantly sour fruity edge; the finish is dry, clean, and genty bitter. Could almost be described as a porter - a marvellous pint whatever you call it though. (6/4/7/3/16=3.6)
Cask, gravity dispensed, at Marlow Donkey, Marlow. Reddish copper with a loose off-white head; earthy aroma; soft, with an earthy malt flavour and a touch of fruity carmael; then a gentle bitterness with some spicy English hops and a dry finish. Very good, again. (6/4/7/3/13=3.3)

Bottle picked up whilst in Devon recently. Poured dark amber coloured nose was malty with just a hint of vanilla, taste was quite fruity but with good maltiness and vanilla detected again, and all this sweetened with a soft toffeeiness. Very nice beer but not as good as some of theirs.
