Cask at the Gingerman. The smell is heavy banana, clove, yeast, spice, some hops, and good. The look is cloudy, thin head, and brown in color. The taste is fruits, sugar, fresh, and bananas.

Brown in color and hazy with a decent off-white head. Aroma is heavy with bananas and spice with some wheat bread. Taste is of caramel, yeast, bananas and toffee.

(Cask) Pours a murky brown milk shake looking body with spare tan head. Aroma of banana, wheat, subtle citrus notes, and light bubble gum. Flavor of banana, wheat, raisins, and light clove with a dry, grainy finish.

Murky brown with no head. Definite banana and circus peanuts, some musk, and some bubble gum. Chewy palate, banana and clove dominate, bubble gum and circus peanuts in the finish. Interesting cask beer, 200 year old cask at that.

Smells like bread and thick and slightly funky. Doesn’t taste as defined. Much more muddled. Some raisin and apricot too

(from 200 year old oak cask) milkshake brown pour, creamy tan head. Nose of celery, earth, tons of spices, raisin, banana and wheat. Taste is rye bread, cracker, light toastiness, bit of citrus hoppiness, clove, light banana and spices. Thinnish body with nice natural carbonation.
