Half-pint, cask ale at Ivory Peg (JDW). Shared with Cunningham. Filmy layer, fair lacing, clear copper coloured body. Mild malt-fruity aromas. Slightly marmalade flavours, toffee and berries. Subdued bittersweet ending. Okay with the English breakfast (Chelmsford 19.02.2017).

Clear nutty color with no head. Moderate intensity in the aroma. Medium light body and a flat carbonation level. Moderate sweet and a mild bitterness. Caramel malty, some toffee and mild fruity flavor. Not very inviting this.

Cask-conditioned at the Commercial Rooms (JDW), Bristol 8/2/2017. Amber in colour, with a moderately-sized, off-white, head. Sweet and rather thin-bodied bitter, with ripe cereals, a touch of hedgerow fruit and abrupt finish. So so.

Cask at the Hope Tap (JDW), Reading. An amber pour with a loose white head; light berry fruit aroma; thin in the mouth with a berry fruit taste; followed by a short grassy bitterness; then a sweet fruity finish. Rather average.
