| 2.8 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 5/10 | 3/5 | 5/10 | 4/5 | 11/20 | Oct 31, 2009 Cask at the Pembury Tavern, Hackney, london on 25th Oct 2009. Deep red/brown with virtually no head. Caramel malts in abundance with touches of banana and vinous aromas along with a little nuttiness that soon subsides into a generally sweet background with a few hop notes later. A refreshing drink but not a favourite; however it was well kept by the pub.

| 3.3 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 7/10 | 3/5 | 7/10 | 3/5 | 13/20 | Apr 3, 2007 Aroma is roasty, though not too roasty, with a touch of chocolate. Taste is similar though a touch to dry from the hops, though not much hop character. Nice drinkable ale though not really that complex.
