Cask at the Great British Beer Festival 2013. Poured a cloudy copper colour with no head. Funky aroma of wet grass and caramel. Flavours were stale and not very pleasant. Might have been toward the end of the barrel, but I’d drunk quite a few sub-parr cask conditioned beers at this year’s festival.

Cask handpump at the Plough, Chelmsford. Golden brown colour with a small slightly off-white head. Nice aroma of hops, straw and grass, floral with a touch of citrus. Medium body, slightly bitter finish pitched at right level. A very nice couple of pints enjoyed whilst watching the Cricket.

GBBF. Cask. Hazy gold beer with a decent frothy head. Light dry palate. Light malt and a little subtle hop. which has an unfortunate sulphur streak. Dry finish. Coulda been good sans the sulphur.

On tap @ the Haymarket Bar. Pours golden with a nice sized head. There is a grapefruit note which is expected but also a bit of green apple which has be worried it is just on the edge of oxidation. The taste has more of the same. I mentioned this to the bar people who can’t agree re the green apple, so if it is the way it’s meant to be it’s worrying. For some unknown reason, I am back in the Haymarket two nights later and I try the beer again (my friend has it this time) and it’s much better. So, it was slightly sour the first time and this cask was fresh.
