harrisoni (5106), Ashford, Kent, England Jan 28, 2008 Cask handpull at The Newcastle Arms, Newcastle. Choccy tasty stout. Good grainy quality Fin (2164), Merton, Oxfordshire, England Sep 14, 2007 Cast at The Smithfield, Derby, at the ’Smithfest’ - (pub beer festival) 08-09-07 According to the Durham website, this had previously been discontinued because of a lack of interest in cask stouts. Glad that this beer has made a re-appearance because I rather enjoyed it. Poured black with small head, typical roasted notes that one might expect, very tasty and full flavoured if a bit cloying at times, enjoyable but I would imagine one would be plenty.
