Cask in the market porter. Alroudn rating: Nutty toffee malt, marzipan, berry fruit, a giood fruitcake with toasted almonds. I shouldnt like this but do.

Bottle purchased at Sainsburys, Kidlington, Oxon and consumed in a field at Towersey, Oxfordshire, 30-08-09 Pours amber with off-white head. Nice fruity beer with some reasonable bitterness, in fact getting slightly more bitters as it slips down. Bit malty and hops are noticeable, decent beer. A6 A3 F7 P3 Ov13 3.2

Bottle. Thick collared copper hinting at the creaminess beneath. Woodsy, discreetly spicy hop musk nudging into hazelnut, chocolate and wholemeal. Slick, woodsy and good, holding those hazelnut, chocolate, digestive and faint beansprout dankness notes all the way. Might be filtered, but doesn’t feel it. Rub of peppery English hopcone. Really well put together, and BrewDog aside, easily the pick of the Sainsbury’s haul so far...

UPDATED: OCT 20, 2009 Bottle.Very dark amber with a small head,aroma of piney cedar hops and spice,taste of hops lemon earth and malt,good dry bitter fin.

Bottle from Sainsburys. Copper coloured, with a slight white head and moderate carbonation. Caramel, malty aroma with some earthiness. Flavour was fruity, with a hint of chocolate and bittering hop finish. Good.

bottle, bought somewehre in rural Devon. Clear chestnut-amber colour, mid-sized beige head. Malty-hoppy nose. Light to medium-bodied, solid malty base with a good portion of bitter and aromatic hops. Very slightly fruity. A nice one.

Cask conditioned at The Odd Wheel Inn, Wembury, Devon. Brown amber with white head. This was a little flat but still a sweetish, malty beer with darker roasted malts. Good nose and perhaps a little thin on the palate there is a burnt husky taste through the finish. pretty decent.
