Cask at the Old Manor (JDW), Bracknell. Amber with a loose white head; earthy, grainy aroma; sour grain taste with some appley fruit; then a dry biscuity finish. Quite satisfying, but a rather basic bitter.

Hand-pulled half pint in The Crown Inn, Oakengates on 13 Nov 2012. Amber with an off-white head. Fruity aroma, with a mixed herb sort of smell as well. The beer is hoppy and fruity in the mouth with again those herbs in the background. Semi-sweet at first with a dry slightly bitter finish. Nothing special, but a decent enough beer.

Cask at The Last Plantagenet, Leicester. Bronze beer with a dry aroma, and a dry and lightly hopped flavour with a bitter finish. Overall a reasonable beer.
