Cask at WHOAF 2015. It pours clear deep red-brown with a small white head. The nose is bitter-sweet, earthy, toasted grain, varnish, caramel, some ginger bread, spice and Christmas cake. The taste is rich, bitter, woody, biscuit malt, toasted grass, must, earth, over-ripe orchard fruits, wood, varnish, ginger and Christmas cake with a dry, lightly spice finale. Medium body and sot carbonation. Pretty decent

Pint at the Old Elm Tree, Durham. Golden body with a white frothy head. Hoppy and citrus aromas, with a full flavour to match.

Cask by hand-pump at Pot Still, Glasgow - clear amber brown, thin creamy off-white head, weak malty aroma, good film of lacing, caramel, bit of fruit, good hop bitterness, easy to drink

Had a lovely pint of Comfortably Numb in the The Harp, Charing Cross. It's very deceptive, goes down really easily and doesn't let you know it's a strong ale. A dangerous beer and one of my favourites!

Cask at the Webb Ellis JDW, dark amber with a lacing head, fruity and faintly tart nose, mid to full bodied, rich fruity and honeyed body with toast and marmalade notes and a spicy citrus-bitter edge.

Cask Real Ale tasted at Angleterre 0.23L glass. Nose of berries. Pale beige head (4mm). Dark coppery colour. Malty and roasty hoppy taste with some hints of berries (raspberry). At the end hoppy bitterness.
