Cask at the King and Castle, Tourist Town Zentrum, 02/04/16. Clear golden yellow with a well appointed off white cap. Nose is sweet malt, grain, light noble hop tunes, straw, faint green apple. Taste comprises lihgt bread, more sweet malt, grain, light honey, caramel wafer. Medium bodied, soft carbonation, semi drying close with a lick of booze and a slight bitter edge. Not sure how you can drain so much flavour from a 6.6% brew ... totally whelming!

330 ml bottle. Clear, deep golden body with a medium sized off-white head. Aroma has caramel malt, toffee, toast and brown sugar. Flavor is quite sweet malty, caramel, toffee, bread, brown sugar and hint of fruit. Moderate bitterness. Medium to full bodied and average aftertaste in the same direction as the rest. A rather classic, traditional old fashioned British ale, and that’s no favorite by me.

In this edition of "what the hell am I drinking." Bottle pour. Clear copper pour with an active fizz head. Soft aroma of caramel that’s actually quite nice. Flavor is a battle of malt and booziness, with malt winning. Hints of metallic. Worked great to hydrate. Easy drinking overall. Not bad.

Cask-conditioned at the Commercial Rooms (JDW), Bristol March 2016. Golden in colour, with a slight, white, head. Aroma of sweet, grainy, malts and a touch of stone fruit, with a whiff of leafy hop. Flavour had sweetish, biscuity, malts, some more fruit and a boozy finish. OK.

Bottle. A clear, dark golden colored beer topped by a small, white head. Rather malty aroma with a grassy, light cheesy and fruity aroma. The flavor is a bit sweetish, with toffee and some vienna malts. Decent bitterness and a good dash of fruityness. Pine cones and grass. Full to medium body and a soft carbonation. Long caramel finish with a decent fruityness. Overall, a rather boring one, but sure decent and without any flaws. 160325
