Cask. Pours amber and clear with a solid white head. Malts and fruitiness in the aroma. Malty, slightly raisiny taste initially, then orangey fruity notes come through. Fairly thin mouthfeel and easy drinking. Tasty.

Cask at the Three Guineas, Reading. Deep copper with a scummy white head; aroma of toffee and some fruit; rather thin in the mouth, with a sweet and fruity taste; and a touch of marmalade to finish.

Cask from The Ivory Peg, Chelmsford. For a quality brewer like Adnams, this is disappointing. Scarlet brown colour, thin, bitter and not very enjoyable overall. Served too cold which maybe affected it, maybe would be better from an Adnams pub.

Crikey! I had this beer a week ago and I’ve only just realised the play on words, durrr!! Anyway, cask at the Lord Northbrook, Lee. Reddish-brown pour with a white head. Strong citrus aroma with hints of pear and kiwi fruit. Fresh grapefruit and lemon flavour. Sharp hop bite. Quite pleasant.

Cask at Hamilton Hall, JDW, London. Pours clear copper with a staunch, tan cream head. Sweet, burnt bread nose, berry fruits and toasted leaves. Light sweet flavor, some dirt and leaf bitterness, earth, dried berries, old leather. Light bodied with fine carbonation. Sweet finish with mildly astringent leafy bitterness, creamy malts, brown bread. Scattered and not very pleasant.

(cask@The Lord Northbook) A mahogany/brown pour with frothy off white head and medium body. Aroma of caramel malt, toffee and floral citrus tones, and taste toffee caramel crystal malt and good citrus balance. Great mouthfeel and condition, a very good winter bitter this (even with the low abv) (D15)
