3.1 AROMA 6/10 APPEARANCE 4/5 TASTE 6/10 PALATE 3/5 OVERALL 12/20
Cask, gravity at Merton Winter Beer Festival 05-01-10 Pours conker brown with a light beige head. Touch of tangy fruit on the nose, like sour sharp summmer berries. This is also quite tangy in the mouth, with the aforementioned berries showing again there is a bit of fluffy marshmellow and vanilla to temper the fruit tang, Its fine but maybe not the beer that I wanted at that time.

3.7 AROMA 7/10 APPEARANCE 4/5 TASTE 7/10 PALATE 4/5 OVERALL 15/20
Cask conditioned at Merton Winter Beer Fest 2010. Almost black with brown head. Not immediately what I would describe as a Barley wine, I don’t get the alcohol burn. In this i get some sharp blackcurrant notes with a slightly milky chocolate type flavours, quite woody and roasty, then moderate sweetness in the close. Another good beer from Crouch Vale.
