Cask. Low off-white quickly disappearing head. Pitch black body. Hoppy coffee aroma. Mild watery coffee flavor with low carbonation but with a long aftertaste.

Cask at the GBBF 2008. Black colour, minimal head. Nice roasty aroma, notes of liquorice. "Dead" mouthfeel. Fairly bland flavour. Very moderate roasted notes and a very moderate fruitiness.

Cask at Ealing beer fest. Aroma is sweet roasty and caramel malt character. Taste is similar, quite soft and drinkable, but not too much going on.

Cask (GBBF 2008) - Black in colour. Roasted and slightly smoked aroma with coffee and a bit of caramel. Roasted taste with coffee and some smoked notes. Very nice.
