Cask at Pig’s Ear, I had this down as Speaker’s Hackney Winter Spice Bitter. Smoky, with some spices lurking under, cinnamon. But it is more like a porter than a bitter.

A Mes rate: Gravicask at Pigs Ear.
In a festival that was rather plagued with festival specials, this was certainly one of the weaker ones. Murky red brown colour. Diacetyl, malt and slight chocolate notes are the name of the game with some slight bitterness sneaking in for the finish. Lacking balance and just generally not great.
