Hand-pulled half-pint in The Crown Inn, Oakengates on 29th June 2014, the last pub on my mini pub crawl that day. Pours a good looking amber colour with a full head. Dry hop feel to the whole brew although there is a strong maltines mid-mouthful. I enjoyed it even though there were hints of citrus fruits within the flavours and aroma, which I am now tiring of.

Cask handpump at The Grapes, Oxford, Thursday 29th May 2014 in company of Helen & Geraint Pours copper colour and clear as a bell. Nice fruity twang to this but the nose is rather chocolatey. The bitterness is a slow burner but persistent. Good. A6 A4 T7 P4 Ov14 3.5

Bree Louise. Cask. Light haze on this gold beer, small white head. Palate is smooth with modest fine carbonation. Smooth pale malt with mellow but tasty hops. Orange and orange pith. Blood orange and whispers of tangerine, tropical fruits and hop spice. Finishes smooth and semi dry. Pretty good, very easy drinking.

Gravity cask at the Bree Louise - London. Pours clear, dark gold with a bubbly, white head. Aroma holds nuts and toasted malts. Light sweet flavor with a rich nuttiness, light cocoa, tobacco, some dry leaved. Light to medium in body with soft carbonation. Dry and bitter to finish with notes of cocoa, tobacco ash, leathery fruits, nuts and leaves. OK.
