Nosey Parker is a premium strong ale, golden in colour and with a stronger bitter flavour. Highly flavoured hops give this beer a longer bitter flavour with floral overtones, deceptively smooth with a strong ‘nose’. The beer is named after local cricketer Martyn Parker, who has played for Overseal Phoenix and Hartshorne, Martyn, who is a great family friend has floored a few batsman in his time but on one occasion was floored in the middle of bowling a delivery. With all running to his aid, worried about its cause he proceeded to explain that he had been floored by a wasp……. sympathy was in abundance. Martyn is also known for his larger Proboscis……… or rather his nose.

Handpull cask from the Salmon, Leicester. Mid- to dark gold and clear with a film of white head. Greywater and glue aroma. Improved taste, bittersweet with intense medicinal notes near the finish. This was a bit of a struggle to be honest.

Half-pint, cask ale at Orange Tree. Near clear amber body, filmy layer, upper part lacing. Inviting smell of herbal hops and mid-sweet malts. Well balanced taste character of caramel malts and leady hops. Nice bittersweet finish. Well made bitter. (Hereford 17.10.2022)
