Commercial Description:
Cask; Special.
Available on cask during the winter of 2006/2007 for the first time for eight years.
This is a strong amber ale, boasting a sweet, nutty flavour, with rich dark tones from the crystal malts in the all-malt brew. Target hops give the beer its well balanced bitterness, whilst Challenger and Northdown varieties provide a wonderfully hoppy aroma.

Cask at the Spread Eagle, Croydon. Mid to dark brown with a small white head. Flavour starts off standard caramel malt with a bit of fruit and then a nutty, spicy, earthiness sneaks in underneath and gives it a unique character. Smooth, heavy and sweet palate. Nice stuff but not earth-shattering.

Cask@The Red Lion, Barnes. Decent enough. Sweetish toffee notes, but stil with some earthy dryness about it. Not really complex or anything, just a fairly straight forward, toffee and slight dark fruit sweetness, not very exciting, but drinkable.

The Partridge, Bromley. A darkly sweet fruit and nut extravaganza. Soft and creamy with buttery notes and a lip-smacking old fashioned English hop burn - deep, earthy and spicy. A great flavour journey from sweet to dusty. Gorgeous beer. Stunning.
