Backlog. From cask at Station Buffet Bar, Stalybridge, on The Transpennine Real Ale Trail with KL and LH 09.05.15. Clear nutty brown. Persistent off-white head and lacing. Aroma of hops, bitter berries, caramel and sweet malt. Similar taste, with nuts. Good drinkability. Balanced, with medium bitterness.

Pours clear amber brownish with a bubbly white head. Aroma of malts, some hints of grassy hops, cold coffee and bready notes. Taste is smooth, nutty, watery and crisp malty with some bitterness and cold coffee notes. Finish is bitter, malty and a bit watery with some hints of nuts, coffee and chocolate. Decent light bodied, crisp brown ale

(Cask at Black Door, 2013113) The beer poured deep ruby brown and clear. Its head was small and white. Aroma had malts, molasses and caramel. Palate was medium bodied with medium carbonation. Flavours were malts, molasses, caramell, grass and bitterness. Aftertaste was malty, grassy and bitter. A tasty malty brew.

Cask at the Rake. It pours hazy brown with a small beige head. The nose is wood, earthy, leaf, dried fruit and caramel. The taste is toast, earth, wood, leaf, mild citrus, cocoa, decent bitterness and mild spice with a very dry finish. Medium body and soft carbonation. A bit underwhelming, given it’s Thornbridge. OK...

Cask, half, served in a mug at Craft Beer Co, Islington. A clear amber-brown coloured beer without a head. Caramel malty aroma. The taste is malt-accented with caramel, nuts and chocolate ending with rounded roasted bitterness. Nice (London, 26.11.2012).

Cask @ Hallamshire House, Sheffield 031112
Caramel brown, clear, dense white head, good lacing
Aroma - Soft dark toasted malts with a touch of spicy hop
Taste - caramel malts, soft fruity malts, some english spicy hops in there, smooth and balanced
Palate - very soft carb, thin to medium body. Finish as main flavour, soft malts
Overall - Easy going competent ale, to be honest I found this a little dull for Thornbridge

(Cask at Cask P&K, Pimlico, London, 20 April 2012) Brown colour with foamy, beige head. Malty nose with caramel, chocolate and nuts. Malty taste with notes of caramel, dark bread, dried fruit, raisins, chocolate, toasty grain and a mild bitterness in the finish. Medium body, quite dry. Highly drinkable and quite nice.
