Brewed using hard water drawn from the original well sunk in stone Yorkshire squares to create a full-bodied malty, toffee-ish tasting, creamy beer of unique character.

Cask hand-pull at Ye Olde Swiss Cottage. It pours clear brown with a sturdy off - white head. The aroma is quite soft, sweet, toffee, fudge, butterscotch and bread. The taste is malt - driven, brown bread, toasty grain, cereal, toffee, touch of butterscotch and wood with a faintly dry finish. Light - medium body and fine carbonation. Drinks easy for sure, but there isn’t much depth to it.

Cask at the RIsing Sun. A standard northern English bitter with a creamy mouthfeel, plenty of malt and a litte bit of bitter hops. There was also a rather strange sharpness that meant I would not have had a second pint.

Fra håndpumpe på The Champion (Wells Street, London): vakker dyprødlig kobber med tett skum som holder følge til siste dråpe. Meget cremet og bløt munnfølelse med balansert og myk bitterhet fra første til siste slurk. En klassisk, velkomponert bitter med stor smaksrikdom og eksepsjonell drikkbarhet. Litt maltsødme mot slutten gir en perfekt avrunding.

Cask at Ye Olde Chesire Cheese. A very standard bitter. Not bad but nothing spectacular either. Cask at the Lyceum, London. Really wasnt keen on this one at all, quite unpleasant. Weird off bitter sweetness to it. Down from 2.9 to 2.5.

Cask at the Cittie of Yorke, High Holborn, London. Pours an attractive clear copper colour with a creamy off-white head. Aroma of caramel, malt, slightly nutty. Medium sweetness and bitterness. Quite light bodied, soft carbonation. A very average bitter, was hoping for better.
