7.2/10 — Appearance 8 Aroma 7 Flavor 7 Texture 8 Overall 7
500ml bottle [courtesy of Grumbo, thanks you very much!]. Jet black colour with average, thick, creamy, moderately lasting and lacing, beige head. Roaty, chocolately, dark malty and slightly floral and fruity, minimally perfumed, hoppy aroma, notes of dark chocolate, espresso, petals, a touch of bramble. Taste is slightly bitter, roasty dark malty, slightly floral and fruity hoppy, notes of dark chocolate, espresso, petals, some blueberry and blackberry, minimally metallic overtones. Creamy texture, smooth, soft and silky palate, fine and soft, creamy carbonation. Well crafted, well balanced, highly drinkable - paradigmatic.

Reddish brown and clear with a spotty off-white head. Oaky aroma, some venous and almost vinegar notes. Sweetish taste with a light bitter sourness in the long dry finish. More oak in the aftertaste. Soft carbonation. It's that increasingly rare beast: a decent basic bitter.

4th January 2020 Mighty Oak taproom, Maldon. Cask. Clear gold, small bubbly off white head. Light palate, mildly dry, decent fine carbonation. Light clean malts provide a modicum of sweetness. Floral hop, mildly spicy. Touch of juicy semi ripe citrus. Finishes smooth with some floral bitterness and some unwanted but mild esters. Not bad. Nice condition.
