Cask@GBBF2008. Deep amber colour, small beige head. Aroma is fruity, flowery and wooden. Flavour is malty, slightly grassy as well as earthy. Wellbalanced, but not very much surprises.

Cask at GBBF 08. Amber with strong iodine and medicinal notes on the nose and in the taste. Decent weight and finish but overall I reckon this beer won’t be to many people’s taste.
