Cask-conditioned at the Bag ONails, Bristol 21/03/09. Ruby red with a slight white head. Sweet, red fruit, barley sugar aroma with a hint of coffee. Flavour was also driven by sweetness, with plenty of caramel, fruity malts and some roastiness lurking in the background, before a dry finish. A bit unusual, but drinkable nonetheless.

Cask gravity at 7th Bexley BF. Handbottled drunk on Gravesend station. Very deep ruby colour lasting beige head. Thick ruby porter mild mouthfeel dark plums on flavour. Good condition. Good thick fruity malty beer with touch of sting on finish. Very competent. Decnt beer.
