Medium creamy offwhite lasting head. Dark, barely translucent amber body, sharply divided from the head. Light pine needle hops and roasty malts aroma with smoky notes. Soft, sweetish roasty floral pine needle hop taste. Soft mouthfeel. Lovely, dry clean pine needle, wood, and roasty smoky malts aftertaste, very clear and distinct. Very nice. (0.5pt draught at the brewpub.)

Cask conditioned handpull at Brew Wharf, Borough Market. Mahogany colour with good beige head. Smells fresh. Good red/dark fruits, like ripe strawberry jam. Really rather stunning. Good ESB. Just the feeling it gives you. This ticks a lot of the right boxes for me. Some fruit syrup maybe and lightish use of hop, but combats the fruits well, and a very dry finish.

On Cask at Brew Wharf, London. 5%. Oak brown, slight head. Hoppy nose. And a very hoppy taste. Nice fruit bouquet: orange, peach. Malty. Slightly watery, but very enjoyable.
