Remnant from the old Morlands Abingdon Brewery now brewed in Bury st Edmunds.
A smooth-tasting, cask-conditioned ale enhanced to offer an elegant happy floral nose, a nutty malty palate and a lingering malty sweetness.

Cask at the Willow Walk, JDW - London. Pours clear gold with a creamy white head. Very simple pale bread in the nose with hints of grain, dough. Medium sweet flavor with sugary bread, minimal hops, some caramel, faint berries. Medium videos with one carbonation. Sugary finish with a bit more bread, faint caramel, creamy malts, faint leafy bitterness. So so.

Pours copper-amber with a frothy, parchment coloured head. Aroma is slightly skunked, (clear glass) caramel malt, flowers. Taste is slightly nutty, slightly stale, caramel malt. A bit of earthy, leafy bitter. Ok, but a bit bland.

Drank directly from a crystal clear bottle. This beer is classified as a bitter but I find very little bitter attributes within. Very mellow and easy to get along with. Some cabbage on the pop but that is to be expected considering the bottle. Nice clean lookin almost brown pale beer. Yes, goes down fairly easy. These lower alky beers are fun to deal with. There are some ale attributes present but fer sure its better than some of those moreland beers I’ve had like speckeld hen but this may not be as good as the golden hen I had on cask. On the finish this beer is trying to a little bitter but never quite gets there.

Bottle. Skunked aroma that soon lost it’s skunk and became a pleasant floweriness. Restrained sweet malty body, fairly light with a lekker finish. Better cold

Clear 500ml bottle drank a week before its best before date in late October 2008. Poured into a Batemans pint sleeve glass. Clear, bright, teak brown or red wood in colour depending on how it caught the light. The off-white head soon went to just a collar. Toffee aroma, mixed with caramel and some malts, nothing spectaclar. The aroma wasn’t anywhere in the taste, which was tinny and metallic. Very dry in the mouthfeel and aftertaste for such a good smelling beer. No redeeming features apart from its looks, a fizzy beer that I’ll not be trying again.

A golden amber ale with a thick receeding off white head. A very sweet vanilla malt, with light vinous notes, some treacle, pleasant oxidation effects. In mouth, a good treacle and woody maple malt, lightly oily, a bit hoppy, floral. Not bad, a tad cloying.
