BCA picked up at the Chequers, Front Street Brew-Pub, Binham, Norfolk 16-06-09, consumed later that day at Stiffkey Campsite. Poured light amber with white head and good clarity. There is a buzzing soft bitterness, some oriental spiciness. I don’t really get the liqourice. Nice fizz on the roof of the mouth. I find this a little watery, a little bit of ginger and cold tea, its ok. A6 A3 F6 P3 Ov13 3.1

A mid orange brown coloured beer with a weak white head. A malty nose with a rich caramel, liquorice aroma. The taste is sweet and malty, with sweet fruit flavours, then a dry, woody liquorice taste at the end. Named after a local swallow. Made with the addition of liquorice bark. (Cask - The Chequers Inn, Binham, Norfolk).
