Cask på Edgar Wallace, Temple 4 Okt 10. Mørk brun. Ekstremt lavt luftig skum. Svakt karamellisk aroma. Smaken litt vassen. En syrlig bitter ettersmak med litt karamell dominerer.

From cask at Three Judges. Pours clear and golden orange to yellow with an off-white head. Aroma is light fruity and mild roasted malty. Fruity and sweet caramel malty flavoured with a light fruity finish and just a bite of bitterness. Slight acidic to citric in the far finish.

Bottle, thx to Tarjei. Pours a clear, copper body under a minimal beige head. Quite bready maltyness with some fruity hops in the aroma. Bready, toffeeish flavor with some fruity hops leaving just a little bitterness. Medium to full body. Toffeeish and bready finish. A quite nice beer, but I would like more emphasis on the hops. Both hoppy flavors and bitterness could be higher I think. (080731)

Bottle, Barleycorns, Nantwich. Poured a dark orange colour with a thin off white head. Malty, caramel aroma. Some hop in the flavour and yet more malt. Dryish finish. Pretty unspectacular, but drinkable.

500ml bottle shared with Jim. Goes down very easily, nothing bad about it, but otherwise entirely unmemorable - possibly a good session beer?
