Handpull cask from the Belvoir Alehouse. Light chestnut brown with a hint of red. Thin creamy head on top. Lots of lacing. Faint but enticing aroma with woody, nutty and medicinal overtones. Tastes bittersweet, with some interesting flavours in the sip: some sweet doughy flavours interspersed with a nutty bite, with some Maraschino cherry. Followed by a strong refreshing bitterness in the finish. Decent bitter.

Cask at the Raglan Arms, Rugby - 19/09/12. Badged as Belvoir Best. Clear golden with a decent white head - really looks the part for a cask bitter! Very muted nose, really little to say other than a little malt. Taste is a big improvement on the nose with toasted malts, caramel, hops amd a little smokiness. Medium bodied, smooth and creamy, nice feel to this bitter.
