Cask at Cask Pub and Kitchen, Pimlico, London. A deep amber coloured pour with a medium fluffy white head on top. Nice hoppy, sweet fruity aroma. Tastes hoppy, malty, caramel, quite sweet, fruity. Really easy drinking. Quite a surprise, wasn’t expecting a collaborative brew to turn out so good.

Keg at North Bar, Leeds (from a backlog of ratings I meant to upload ages ago, but managed to forget). Pours a chestnut brown, finger of head. Aroma is impressively hoppy, with some chocolate and nuttiness too. Taste is similar, with a big fruity hop character and a good malt backbone to balance it, with chocolate, nuttiness and a bit of woodiness too. Bitter finish. Mmm.

Keg North Bar Leeds. A chestnut coloured beer with a loose bubbly off-white coloured head. Delicious fruity hops in the nose with doses of chocolate. Samie in the mouth. Great fruity hops which go on forever with bready and chocolatey malts. Big alcohol and massive flavours. To be a bit critical there is too much sweetness which stops it from being world class but it’s still very good.

Cask. Deep brown color with a whispy, caramel color head. The nose is a bit spicy, with bready toasted malts and cherries. The taste is much hoppier than I was expecting given the appearance and nose. It’s a nice suprise, this is a sharp, dry beast that’s more complex than it appears. The mouthfeel’s medium, with subtle carbonation.
