On cask at Bar Volo Le Trou Du Diable event. Spot on the style, a good drinkable cask. Fragrant malt and hops, with three-eights of an inch of cask head. Good malting. Above average mouthfeel for a cask. A little sourness in finish, some lace, a smooth mouthfeel.

Serving type: cask

Pours dark red, mahogany in parts, 1 1/2 fingers of sticky white head, good lace left on the glass. Smells of citrus, grapefruit, hops, biscuity malt. Taste is very malty, medium bitterness, citrus hop, malty finish...taste is nothing at all the way the nose would make you think it would. Mouthfeel is rather thin and a touch watery, very light carbonation, a little more body would go a long way here. Very drinkable, would be a great session brew, good stuff overall.
