Cask at Bricklayers Arms Yorskhire Festival, 27th February 2009. Dark brown. Nice fruity taste with greengages in particular to the fore. Cereal hints too. Light palate.

3.9% deep red colour with a good head, fruity aroma, slightly sweet fruity cherry taste.
3.3 AROMA 6/10 APPEARANCE 3/5 TASTE 6/10 PALATE 3/5 OVERALL 15/20
Gravity cask at the Bricklayer’s Arms BF, 2011. Clear, rich garnet pour with a soft film head. Tons of ripe fruit on the nose, light bread. Flavor is pretty sweet with some grapes, prunes and cherries, along with faint toast. Light bodied with fine carbonation. Has a sweet finish with yet more ripe fruits. OK but uninspiring overall.
1.2 AROMA 2/10 APPEARANCE 3/5 TASTE 2/10 PALATE 2/5 OVERALL 3/20
Cask gravity at St Albans BF 09. Very dark brown colour, thin beige head. Sulphur and green apple on aroma. Not sure it should taste like this. Pretty awful. I would suggest that this is not supposed to taste like this. Drainpour, so need to try it again.

A Mes rate: gravicask at the Bricklayers Arms.
Read brown coloured with no head. Caramel and malt aroma with a hint of vanilla. Similar flavour but let down a little by some burnt plastic in the finish. Superb body for the abv. Decent stuff.

Cask conditioned, gravity dispense at St Albans BF ’06. Dark red, thin head. Aroma is dark & fruity. Tastes rather restrained & muffled; granular sugary malt & fruit. Tanora comes to mind. Interesting- didn’t realise it was a mild.
