Oct 27, 2009 Cask at Volo 2009 English cask vent. Serviceable English bitter. Dark grapefruit colour, lacking much malt. Some peachy fruity taste. Good lacing. Below average mouthfeel. About average cask, and a tad astringent. Not quite at the style.

Oct 27, 2009 Cask. At Volo 2009 English Cask event. Cloudy, nearly pumpkin-orange pour with a tiny frothy off-white head (3+). Aroma of tangerine, dry grain and very mild, dry peat - decently bitter, another in the "not sweet" category. Tasted of grapefruit zest, light cocoa and dry herbal bitterness ... a wee hint of alcohol. Light, slick mouthfeel, still, slightly astringent, quite quick-finishing, leaving a light, dry, slightly woody aftertaste. Decent, a classic cask mouthfeel, quite dry, not sweet at all, but I found that hint of cocoa a little weird.
