COMMERCIAL DESCRIPTION
Cask; Seasonal - mid October to end February. Not on the brew schedule for 2006, so current status uncertain.
An easy drinking traditional style ale. Clean and refreshing yet dark and mysterious, Fisherman is a deep coppery red, conjuring up roasted nuts and dark chocolate, with a lingering taste of liquorice and dried fruits.

maeib (6400) - Wootton, Northampton, Northamptonshire, ENGLAND - DEC 11, 2004
Cask conditioned - handpump - Bridge House Tower Bridge London (RB London Xmas Crawl 2004). A dark brown ruby tinted beer with caramel and malts in the nose. The taste is very malty with coffee flavours. Nice hidden alcohol.

Joeh (2036) - Buckinghamshire, ENGLAND - DEC 10, 2004
Cask conditioned at the Bridge House, Tower Bridge, London..
Roasty, malty beer with coffee. Rather well made but perhaps lacking in the character needed to make it really good.
Sampled on the Ratebeer London Meetup & Pub Crawl, December 2004. With Silktork, Chris_o, Maeib & Kook.

SilkTork (4692) - Rochester, Kent, United Kingdom, WALES - DEC 9, 2004
Bridge House, Tower Bridge - an Adnams pub. Dark sweet and roasty. Well behaved and clean. Tasty enough, but perhaps too well behaved.

Sully (1378) - Potts Point, New South Wales, AUSTRALIA - DEC 6, 2004
Cask @ The Green Man. Lovedly colour on the pour and pleasant toffee like nose. There is a good mouthfeel in this one with a fine after taste of malt and caramel. Certainly better than a number of cask beers around.

fiulijn (10000) - Como, ITALY - DEC 4, 2004
Cask conditioned at Bishop’s Arms, Malmö
Brown color; thin layer of creamy foam. Not too much aromatic, but has a very good velvety body, with some malt and a lot of caramel; a soft bitter, pleasant.

duff (5483) - St, Margarets, Greater London, ENGLAND - NOV 20, 2004
Cask@The Roebuck, Richmond, London. Some nice flavours come through, mainly anise and toffee. Lightly sweet to start with a dry finish, some light roast and acidity towards the finish. Its OK, but lacks depth of flavour.

RichardWilding (201) - London, Greater London, ENGLAND - OCT 31, 2004
Draught. Dark brown, creamy white head. Relatively sweet, but some roasty, rich notes. Malty, not very bitter. A good autumn/winter beer.
