Cask@GBBF2008. Amber colour, small beige head. Aroma is alcohol, sweet fruity hops and mild notes of berries. Flavour is quite much alcohol, sweet fruityness and quite harsh grassyness. Aftertaste is just alcohol and some grassyness. Somehow I came to think of a malt liquor meeting an ale when I had this...

Cask - Fur & Feather, Woodbastwick. A clear, deep amber colour with no head. A rather fruity nose, with aromas of caramel lightly interspersed. The flavours continue in the same vein with strong notes of berries and, after the sweetness has subsided, it gives way to a sourish, spicy bitter finish. Perhaps a touch on the sweet side, but the palate is nicely full in body.

Bottle. A amber beer with a big white head. The aroma is of caramel malt, light fruity and hoppy, so is the taste. Medium body with a sweet dry finish.
