0,5l bottle from St Margaret's Hopes shop. Emlèkszem szeles csütörtöki nap volt, épp aznap jött ki az Orcadian heti száma. Széltől kifújt arccal a locksmith múzeum melletti nyilvános WC ben húztuk meg magunk, s a ki olvasott sporthírekbe bugyolálva húztam meg épp e gyöngyszemet amikor valaki púzott a háttérben. Sose fogom felejteni.

Cask-conditioned at the Commercial Rooms (JDW), Bristol March 2016. Deep gold in colour, with a slight, white, head. Aroma of sweetish, tangerine fruits, digestive malts, and some leafy hops. Flavour had more biscuity malts, citrus fruits and a pleasantly bitter finish. Good.

Cask at the Manchester & County, JDW - Manchester. Pours clear ruby-amber with a lasting creamy tan head. The aroma holds toasted toffee, grainy bread, faint dried berries. Light to medium sweet flavour with some bitter earth, leathery dried berries, toasted grains, simple bread. Light to medium bodied with fine carbonation and creamy texture. OK balance on the finish, with further toasted grains, some creamy toffee, dried fruits, berries. A decent ESB.

Cask @ The Waterhouse, Manchester. Clear golden with a small creamy head. Has a very drinkable texture with a light tropical fruit character fused with a few malts, however the former remains dominant.
