Chelmsford Summer Beer Fest. Cask. Almost clear deep amber beer, small bubbly pale cream colour head. Palate is light and dry, modest fine carbonation. Lacto sweet malt, tangy caramel, dried fruits. Dry finish. Very messy.

Cask at The Anchor Hotel, Haydon Bridge. It pours ruby-brown with a thick beige head. The nose is wood, berry, leather, earth and toast. The taste is rather fruity, berry, dark fruit, wood, earth and mild fruity tartness. Medium body and fine carbonation. Nice berry character. Rather easy drinking. Decent.

500ml bottle. Clear ruby brown amber colour, foam tan head that diminishes and fruity & malty aroma. Taste is tangy sweet malt with fruity, roasted and nutty notes, some bitterness and residual sweetness that lingers in the finish. Medium body and medium carbonation. OK bitter.

Blackfriar, Blackfriars 6 Nov 12. Dyp rubinrød. Lavt kremaktig skum som varer en stund. Litt setter seg fast på glasset. Bra karamellaroma. Smaken vassen. Tilløp til litt røstet malt i ettersmaken. Under pari.

Re - rating on 02.01.15 at Old Well in Barnard Castle. Nice marzipan note coming through. Good complexity so deserves an uprate. Previous rating on 11.02.12 =6+4+6+3+12=3.1 On cask @ the Haymarket. Pours a dark amber with a nicely proportioned head. The nose has apples, toffee and a backbone of biscuits. The taste is more grapes and biscuits. The palate is medium bodied with a creamy texture and a relatively refreshing finish. Overall, a decent bitter.

Cask at The White Hart, Nicholson’s, London. Pours clear, red-gold with a fine, creamy white head. Tangy leaves in the nose. Light sweet flavor, some toasty dough, plenty of citric and leafy bitterness, light grass. Light bodied with fine carbonation. Surprsingly sturdy bitterness to finish, with more bready, doughy malts, lots of tangy leaves. Tastes kind of cheap, and it really doesn’t bring me much joy to drink this beer.
