6th August 2008. On tap at GBBF. Clear brown beer. Feels a bit like a barleywine but not quite as strong as a lot of them. Malty with brandy and porty finish.

Naked and hazy orange-brown body. Smell of sweet malts and fruit. Sweet grainy malts in flavour with a nicely, but moderate, bitterness to the tail. Masked alcohol. Dry in the mouth and quite easy to drink (Cask, sample at GBBF 06.08.2009).

Cask@GBBF 2009. Amber color, small white head. Aroma of calvados and raisins. Flavor is similar, raisins, some alcohol, woody hops. Quite nice beer to sip. Well-balanced winter warmer.

Cask@GBBF2009. Deep ambery orange colour with small head. Aroma is hops, quite nig on caramel malts and also some bready notes. Flavour is wood, some not-too-sweet syrup as well as mild sweet malty notes.

Cask at the GBBF 2009. I should have known this beer wasn’t up to much since it was a whopping 7.5% but was still available at around 9pm on Wednesday of the festival. Really boring for something this strong. Aroma and flavours of banana bread. Not awful, but I really expected more.
