Cask Stillage at the Black Horse, Darwen 27/05/2006 Hop aroma. Clear golden coloured hoppy fruity slightly rich on the palate and strong in alcohol. Some dryness in a crisp woody finish.

Cask @ the Pigs Ear Festival, London , 2003.
Gold, flat, flavoursome but odd. It’s definitely an ugly beer there’s no doubt about that. I tried it last after every critic in the joint had put shit on it, so I guess my expectations had been managed an it wasn’t so bad after all. Odd, strange, picked on.

Gravity fresh @ Pig's Ear Festival, East London. Not much aroma. A pleasant fruit wandering around amongst the watery Marris Otter type malt with very little hop awareness. Maybe a bit of grapefruit late on. Us Brits are not the best at making lager. Halifax Steam have been brewing since May 2001 and have four regular outlets in the local area.
