A festival of English flavours featuring spice, nuttiness and caramel, nicely balanced with a mellow hoppiness. Pours dark amber with a deliciously dense creamy head and a warming malt aroma.

Isle Of Wight Holiday Beer#97. Amber coloured with a decent head. Crisp hoppy-sugary beer, there's a lot of the latter in both aroma and taste. It's tasty enough for it though.

Cask at Picture House, Stafford. Pours “bitter brown” with a small off-white head and good lacing. Not much of an aroma – just vague hints of treacle and biscuits. In the mouth it is quite sweet with a creamy texture and flavours of toffee, fudge, nuts and malts. A little spice comes through later leading to a slightly bitter finish. This is a decent premium bitter.

Almost clear deep amber beer, small bubbly pale tan head. Smooth and light palate, decent minerally carbonation coming through on the back end. Smooth malts, a little creamy sweetness and a decent amount of caramel, mild creamy nuttiness underneath. Soft and mild esters in the mid. The back end is ripeish fruits and a whisper of marmalade. Comes together very well into a light finish. Just a very well layered trad English brew. Tasty and drinkable.

[Cask at the Back of Beyond (JDW), Reading.] A bright amber pour with a tight cream coloured head; malty aroma; thick and oily in the mouth with a malty taste and a little spice; then a doughy rye bread finish. A satisfying, old fashioned, English ale.
