Clear amber gold beer. Low carbonation. Dry palate. Some sulphur and a bitter finish! Marvelous!

Half pint, cask ale at The Flying Horse, Gatwick Airport. Golden-copper. Dry fruity to the nose. The taste profile contains lots of fresh fruits with noble malts in the background. Smooth bitter finish. Easy to drink. Moreish summer beer (05.05.2009).

[Gravity cask at Back of Beyond, Reading] Brown. Weird smell and initial taste - almond/marzipan mixed with plant food! Mellows into what is really qutie a pleasant beer, with toffee flavours dominating over a rich, fruity finish. Hmmm... mixed feelings on this one. c8

Cask at the Penny Black, JDW, Bicester, Oxon 24-04-09 Pours reddy brown touch of haze. The nose was almost non-existent but then it was up against the Oakham Hareflick and the surprisngly good Ramsbury’s Hell’s Highway Mild. Taste was fruity and malty and there was some toffee, the commercial description being very accurate and whilst not a bad beer by any means its just a middle of the road beer. A6 A3 F5 P3 Ov11 2.8

Cask handpull at Samuel Peto, JDW, Folkestone. It’s a quite fruity bitter, no huge hop presence, little bit of tongue tingle on finish. Some GK yeast character. Other than fruit, a bit dull.

Cask at the Samuel Peto (JDW), Folkestone. Port red in colour with a thin off-white head; lots of red fruit aroma; a little fruit flavour to start then dry caramel, biscuit and coffee takes over leading to a dry finish.
