500ml bottle bought at Hop Beer Shop. Shared with Finn on a 20:35 train from Colchester to Liverpool Street. Bubbly white head, bright, deep dark brown body. Dotted spots on the glassware. Moderate smell of semi-sweet, berry skins. Fruit-berry flavours, impacts of stewed fruits, and earthy, mid-sweet, malts. Drying, berry fruity end. Quite decent seasonal brew. (Train session, 23.11.2021).

Gravicask, half pint at Hop Beer Shop, shared with Finn. Near black in the glass, remaining beige head, fair lacing. Inviting smell of black chocolate malts. Rounded taste profile of chocolate and a note of liquorice. Roasted malt bitter finish. Well crafted stout, nice. (Chelmsford 23.11.2021).

Half-pint, cask at the Orange Tree Chelmsford. Shared with Finn. Misty amber body, bubbles on the surface, spotty lacing. Restrained aromas of mild caramel and grassy hops. Quite decent taste of biscuit, grass, and moderate malty sweetness. Earthy malts with a bittersweet bite to the ending. Easy to drink. Fair enough. (Chelmsford 23.11.2021).

Cask-conditioned at the Plough Worcester 19/9/2021. Golden in colour, with a decent, white, head. Leafy hops, light, biscuity malts, hedgerow fruits and a gently bitter, finish. Good. --- Beer aliased from original tick of Jake the Snake on 22 Jan 2011 at 00:01 - Score: Appearance - 6 | Aroma - 6 | Flavor - 6 | Texture - 6 | Overall - 6. Original review text: Cask-conditioned at the Wenlock, London 17/1/2011. A pale, golden beer with a frothy white head. Aroma of citrus hop with a touch of creamy, sweet malts. Flavour had some grapefruit before a dryish finish. Ok.
