This is a new seasonal brew for this year and is mid brown in colour, with an inviting aroma and distinctive and full-bodied, yet quaffable, flavour, leading to a lasting finish.

Cask handpull at Willow Walk, JDW, Victoria. Beautiful brown amber colour with lasting thin ivory head. Good deep, slightly sweet biscuit bitter. Some fruit. Very decent. Herby hop fruity malt bitter, what like used to be made in the UK. Willamette blackcurrant on finish. It’s a very decent bitter.

(Cask at Penderel’s Oak JDW, Holborn, London, 24 Nov 2010) Dark amber colour with frothy, beige head. Malty, slightly fruity nose with toast, orange marmalade and apricots. Malty, slightly fruity taste with notes of toast and earthy hops in a dry, well balanced finish. Light body, fairly dry. Tasty and highly drinkable.

Cask at the Claude du Vall (JDW), Camberley. Golden amber with a scummy looking cream coloured head; attractive farmyard aroma; fruity malt flavour with some slightly sour apple; caramel and biscuit to finish. A pleasant enough bitter.

[Cask at the Monks Retreat (JDW), Reading] Amber, moderate off-white head, slight fizz. Caramel, some fruit, a minty leafiness & a restrained earthy bitterness in the finish. Rather dull I’m afraid.

Cask-conditioned at the Monks Retreat, Reading 7/11/10. Deep amber in colour with a slight, off-white head. Malty, overripe fruit aroma. Sweet, fruity flavour, with bready malts and a short, bitter finish. Not for me.

Cask at The Central Bar, JDW. Pours a clear, shining copper with a creamy, lingering head. Doughy malt nose with some faint hops. Flavor is fairly sweet and a touch syrupy with caramel notes, and some mild, orange citrus bitters. Light to medium in body with fine carbonation. Finishes nicely balanced with some sugary malts and dry, lightly earthy bitterness. Good stuff.
