Cask (gravity dispense). Beer #22 at Chelmsford Winter Beer Festival on 3 February 2011. Not that black and quite sweet. Caramel dominates. Maybe some hints of spice but I didn’t pick up any orange. Mouthfeel is quite light. Not really my thing.

sm89walt (1419) - Norwich, Norfolk, ENGLAND - DEC 11, 2011
Cask - The Plasterers Arms, Norwich. Small though lasting bubbly beige to light tan head; clear, dark & deep ruddy brown body. Spicy, juicy dark fruits on the nose. Like a weak & watery Jager on the tongue. Spicy & fruit, quite Christmassy & cakey. Light to medium body, soft palate texture, short & spicy finish.

3rd February 2011
Chelmsford Winter Beer Festival. Loads of beers shared with ChrisO and Harrisoni - Cheers! Clear dark brown beer, residual tan head. A light touch of dark malts - more porterish. Zingy fruits. Sweet red fruits underneath some toffee malt. Quite well joined up. Tasty beer.
