<i>Sampled cask conditioned at Oliver Twist, Stockholm.</i><br /> Pale nut brown. Ashy aroma. Light bodied, very dry. Fruity and astringent. Mildly roasty with medium body and rounded mouthfeel. Salty and very bitter finish. Very flavourful for it&#39;s gravity, but not all that interesting.

Cask&#64;GBBF2007. Deep golden colour, mediumsized beige head. Aroma is wood, slight hayness and some hops. Flavour is caramel, malts, some hops and wood. OK brew, but nothing outstanding.

Cask handpull at Wetherspoons, Folkestone. Attractive chestnut colour with lasting creamy beige head. Some light malt and some earthy hop on the aroma. Not a huge aroma. Bit of malt in mouth, but a bit watery too and lacking in flavour. OK, if too watery
