Cask, half, served in a mug at Craft Beer Co, Islington. A clear amber-brown coloured beer without a head. Caramel malty aroma. The taste is malt-accented with caramel, nuts and chocolate ending with rounded roasted bitterness. Nice (London, 26.11.2012).

Cask @ Hallamshire House, Sheffield 031112
Caramel brown, clear, dense white head, good lacing
Aroma - Soft dark toasted malts with a touch of spicy hop
Taste - caramel malts, soft fruity malts, some english spicy hops in there, smooth and balanced
Palate - very soft carb, thin to medium body. Finish as main flavour, soft malts
Overall - Easy going competent ale, to be honest I found this a little dull for Thornbridge

3.1 AROMA 6/10 APPEARANCE 3/5 TASTE 6/10 PALATE 3/5 OVERALL 13/20
Deep red color with a brownish head that disappears. The nose is of roasted malts, coffee, chocolate, dark cherries. The taste is initially bitter and dry, but sugary sweet notes begin to show themselves. The palate is medium, the texture a bit thin. Overall, OK, but not Thornbridge’s finest.

Cloudy dark amber color; creamy head (sparkler). Aroma of dark caramel, chocolate, dust, pepper, fruits. The body is lean, the mouthfeel is lightly oily; caramel and some chocolate flavor, light yeast; bold bitterness. Quite good.
