Nov 14, 2007 Cask in Blackfriars. This is a one veriety hop i believe, from thier one english hop verity series. Aroma starts of very earthy and mixed, however as it drinks goes onto piney, lightly zesty biscuity toffee malts. Taste has a decent hearty malt backing, spicey toffee notes, slightly hop resin and a wee bit of tart blackcurrent notes. Quite an intresting beer.

Sep 15, 2007 Cask at Wellington Arms, Bedford. The pumpclip was ’Acorn Fuggles IPA 5%’ Not sure if it was a new version. dark gold with a small white head. Slightly burnt malt aroma. This is a British IPA with quite decent hoppiness and just a hint of dark chocolate. Tasty and good.
