Cask Handpump at the New Oxford, Salford 17/03/2008 Fruity and a little roast aroma. Small tan head. Dark red coloured smooth on the palate and fruity with a crisp dry and slightly bitter roast finish.

Cask, Hinckley 08. Inky, headless and still. Red pepper, ash, coal smoke and coffee aroma. Lactic tang, cocoa and smoke. Festival splash of sourness. Lingers nicely, but a bit feeble-bodied and not wholly convincing. More chocolate as it warms. Won me over.

Cask@Newark Beer Festival, 2008. Black beer with a lightly roasted aroma, and a roasted and lightly dry flavour. Overall a reasonable dark beer.

Cask, gravity, at Cambridge Beer Festival ’08. Very dark brown. A slight chocolate aroma. Pleasant sweet coffee taste with some late bitterness. But that’s about it.
