Cask conditioned @ Guide Dog, Soton. Deep copper. Malty nose- biscuity with brown bread and smooth caramel. Hints of spicy hops in the mouth which fall back into an earthier finish. Despite not being that strong or overly sweet and syrupy I didnt find this particularly drinkable and my pint took rather longer than normal to finish. On the whole fairly pleasant.

Cask@O’Connells. Quick rating, before running the crap out of myself to get on the train... which showed to be 20 minutes late... typical. Anyway, good beer to end the beer day in Tampere with. Hazy golden colour, small creamy white head. Fruits, spicyness, hops, slight wooden hints in the aroma. Flavour is fruity hoppy and caramellish. Aftertaste is flowerish hoppy.
