Cask at the Borough, Lancaster (the brewpub). Golden, clear, ample carbonation. Honey, malt, woodgrain in the mild aroma. Taste us a gentle malty bittersweet with sweet syrupy notes. This is the sort of beer that is difficult to rate: it’s not unpleasant - in fact it’s a nice feeling to drink it - but it just doesn’t have a lot of flavour. A good palette cleanser or ’come-down’ beer.

Cask at the Borough, 27/02/15. Clear golden amber with a moderate off white covering. Nose is biscuit, caramel, fruit notes. Taste comprises caramel, dark fruits, straw, citric closure. Medium bodied, soft carbonation, semi drying close. Ok.
