RERATE Cask at Lod Burton, Burton on Trent. Pours a bright golden amber with a small off-white head and good lacing. Malts are to the fore in the aroma along with some hints of spices. Malts again in the mouth, along with grains and oranges. Some traditional hops come through after a while along wth spices and some ginger. The Burton snatch makers itself evident in the finish. This is pretty good. ORIGINAL REVIEW Cask at Standing Order, Derby. Unfortunately beer was served too cold, so may need a rerate later, but here goes. Pours a golden orange with a small white head and good lacing. A pleasant aroma featuring malted milk biscuits and the usual Burton sulphurous undertones. In the mouth there is a strong taste of oranges, with just a hint of ginger underneath. The finish starts off as bitter but then fades to malty. 7:4:8:4:13 = 3.6

Handpull cask at the Old Horse, Leicester. Golden, clear with a wispy off-white head. Medicinal herbs and slightly sulphurous aroma with peach and perfumed floral notes. Sweet taste with a touch of astringency toward the drier finish. Watercress in the aftertaste. Not one of Burton Bridge's best, but enjoyable enough.
