haddonsman (1191), Derby, Derbyshire, England Aug 16, 2006 Cask (handpump) Wellington, Birmingham. Deep dark bitter, chunky sweet fruit, roasty mailts through to a dry finish. An excellent Acorn beer. SilkTork (3941), Rochester, Kent, England Mar 9, 2006 Dover Fest, 2006 Roasty, licorice tinged premium bitter. Some soap. OK. chris_o (4409), London, Greater London, England Mar 1, 2006 Cask (gravity dispense) at White Cliffs Beer Festival, February 2006. First beer of the festival and an impressive start. Deep reddish brown colour. Sweetish caramel aroma with rich plummy fruit and a touch of chocolate. Some roasty, smoky malt too, which carries through onto the palate. More chewy fruit, nuts and dark smoky malt. Good depth of flavour and clean, dry finish.
kook (2035), Perth, Western Australia, Australia Mar 1, 2006 Cask @ Dover Festival 06: Deep amber. Dry nutty bitter roast flavour. Bit chalky but perfectly drinkable. MrWalker (928), Stockholm, Sweden Feb 14, 2006 Cask @ 13th White Cliffs BF, Dover. 3 February, 2006 An average darker bitter without any personality.
