| Stephen Harris | | 05 Jan 2012 | Deep red in colour, this is quite a complex beer with a smooth mouthfeel, just a hint of 'Old Ale' sourness, leading in to a long, hoppy finish. |

| Stephen Harris | | 08 Nov 2013 | This cask dry-hopped with East Kent Goldings (another was available with Brewers Gold). Unfortunately it was in very flat condition from the stillage and lacking in even the usual flavours. |
