From the cask. Poured a rich copper color with a somwhat airy, off-white head. Yielded surprisingly little in the way of aroma. Fruit esters (bannana) and spice in the mouth with a bitter finish. Not one I would try again.

Cask at some pub in Manchester, forgot to make a note of that sorry. Amber brown with thick creamy head. hints of fruit caramel and syrup with a light bitter finish. Didn’t really care for it myself.

Probably better on cask than in a can or bottle. This is just not really to my taste still, over complicated flavours throughout, its not the best ale in the World.

Cask @ YNWA, Kolding.
Pours a great redish copper with a great, creamy, off-white head. Super duration. Mild aroma, some caramel and light grassy hops. Fine mouthfeel, light carbonation and a fine dry feel. Flavour starts off with quite a bit of sweet caramel and butterscotch. Then a good, dry hoppiness sets in. Pine, grass and flowery. Nice enough.

Cask at The Wharf, Aalborg, Denmark. Amber/brown color with a small off-white head. Aroma of slight sourness, dried fruit, diacetyl, caramel, toffee and earth. Taste of roasted malt, typical english hop bitterness, caramel, minerals, and light sweetness.
