On cask, was great, couldn’t get enough of this. Plenty of depth, caramel, maltiness, really great stuff.

Nov 10, 2006 Cask handpull at Spinnaker’s, Victoria. Deep chestnut colour with ruby hints and a lasting thick beige head. Malty aroma, choccy again, maybe a bit more of a twang then the ESB, but still lacks depth and any hop bite. Good malts but just a bit nothingy in mouth. Slight tang on finish.

Jan 21, 2006 BBD 10/05. Robe brune très claire aux reflets roux. Arômes de co2 et de fumé. Saveurs de malt léger, de malt fumé à la tourbe. Finale citronnée. Peut-être un peu trop vieille.

Aug 5, 2005 Cask at the brewery
Dark red and orange color. Very nice body for a cask ale: big, doughy and full of a thick, textural oak flavor. Sweet maple, woody and brandy flavors, with some more doughly and pancake-like flavors as well. Very good stuff here. The best cask ale in Victoria.

Mar 21, 2005 Pours a red/brown body with an offwhite large head, quickly diminishes. Aroma is strong peat and earthy with some malt backbone. Flavour starts off malty then kicks you with peat. Finish is slightly sweet. Unique and flavourful.
