Cask @ Cable Station Inn as Cable Station Inn House Ale (probably an alias, but I’m not able to figure out witch – maybe Betty Stogs based on my previously rating of this?). Clear dark golden body with a small, dense off-white head. Mild, mostly ,malty aroma. Flavor is ,mild, soft, smooth malty with some kind of general fruitiness. Low bitterness and not much complexity. Decent session ale, nothing special.

Cask @ King William IV. Dark golden body with a small white head. Aroma is light malt and fruit, but also a hint of “sour” yeast and rubber. Flavor is soft and light malt with moderate bitterness. Flavor is better than aroma, but I’m afraid this was not in the best state. Medium body. Drinkable but is probably meant to be fresher.

500ml bottle from Morrisons online. Clear amber, small white head, some retention. Aroma of caramel malts, some stone fruits. Taste does have a nice light fruitiness, berries and raisins, with supporting biscuit malts. More flavour than your average best bitter. Light to moderate body. Good.

Cask at Moon under Water, Wolverhampton. Pours a hazy orange-brown with a small cream head. Has a faint aroma of fruits mixed with oranges and malts. In the mouth the overwhelming sensation is how watery it is. There’s a barley sugar sweetness and underneath it all are some nuts and toffee. An acrid sharpness as well – I suspect this example not in the best condition. Will need to rerate.
