Very nice looking russet beer with a thick white head. Hint of malt on the nose, richer mouthfeel than expected and the opposite of thin (not thick, surely?). All in all a pleasant lunch-time pint, approaching a winter warmer.

Cask Conditioned at The Bree Louise, London
Dark amber color; foamy head. The aroma is very light, minty if possible. Ordinary caramel flavor and some darker chocolate, correct bitterness. Smooth and round mouthfeel, but mostly boring.

Very thick-set yellowish head over well-carbonated pale amber beer with a slight olive shine. Greenery, sweet roasted coffee or mocha, mocha cookies (café noir), coffee milk, roasted. Bitter dominating the background coffee/mocha taste. Bitter is too roasted for being called hoppy, but not exclusively malt-originating. More parsley interwoven with coffee biscuits. Appropriately British light MF. Reasonably original. What the link to the Liar’s competition might be? Thanks, Jezza!

Cask at The Anchor, Southwark, London.
Pours a clear amber colour with nice creamy head and malty nose. The taste is mild roasted malt, coffee and milk chocolate with some hoppy notes in the finish. Very nice brew.

[i] Bottle from Waitrose, 08-11-07 [/i] Pours amber in colour, with small white head. Aroma a bit malty with some sweetness. Tasted quite underwhelming at first soft mouthfeel some hops did appear at the end, and whilst it was fine it was no great shakes.

500ml bottle bought at Waitrose, Hythe, Kent - about as far as you can get from the brewery while still being in England! Reddish amber with a thin white head; aroma like it says on the bottle - chocolate, malt and nuts; deep and chewy malts give a chocolate flavour with a dry biscuity finish; extremely moreish. An interesting beer, part bitter, part stout in character.
