Cask at Hamilton Hall, JDW - London. Pours clear copper with a frothy, light khaki head. The aroma holds cheap, lightly toasted malts, grains, hints of caramel. Light sweet flavour with notes of leathery berries, orange peel, more grainy bread, leafy hops. Light bodied with fine carbonation; decent condition. Finishes with some leafy hop bitterness, toasted grains, earth, aged berries. Not especially pleasant, but not bad.

Cask at the Wykenham Arms, Winchester. Feint creamy aroma. Dark chestnut, good thick off-white head. Slight bitterness, a hint of something like cloves. Boring. Soft palate. OK. Nothing to make it stand out as a seasonal.
