Keykeg at Pigs Ear. Hazy yellowish gold beer, small bubbly pale cream colour head. Airy palate, semi dry, decent fine minerally carbonation. Light bodied pale malts, a fairly forward creamy sweetness. Soft cooling pine, mild skunk. Light but piney and very slightly ripe hop fruits. A light and semi dry finish. Nicely hoppy.

Cask at Pigs Ear. Near opaque dark brown beer, small tan head. Smooth palate, mildly dry, decent fine carbonation. Soft dark malts, candy chocolate, marshmallow and estery sweetness. Some alcohol spice. Touch of brandy. Light and semi dry alcohol spicy finale. It's a bit all over the place frankly but, somehow finds a common centre and becomes a sweet but drinkable impy.

Can. A light haze on this orange gold beer, small bubbly pale cream colour head that doesn't last. Light palate, mildly dry, good fine minerally carbonation. Light bodied pale malts, a forward creamy sweetness as per Phantom norm. Juicy and slightly tangy orange, tangerine and mandarin hops. Cooling pine of course. Mild hop spice. Touches of stone fruits and a little mango. Mild skunk runs underneath. Crisp finish. Pretty juicy.
