Cask @ JDW A G Bell, Edinburgh 250912
Caramel brown, clear, thin white head
Aroma - caramel malts, slight hint of chocolate(?), rather sour fruits
Taste - yeasty, caramel malts, touch of earthy malts, some fruity malt, hint of raisin, whole thing is muddled with a bit of sourness, odd
Palate - soft carb, thin for 4.7% beer, tinge of sourness on the palate. Finish - as main flavour, caramel, sour bitterish linger
Overall - Mediocre. Comes across as an amateurish brew

Cask at Hamilton Hall, JDW, London. Pours clear coppeer with a moderate, white foam head. Tangy fruits and toasty dough in the nose. Light to medium sweet flavor, more tangy fruits, some overripe orange, toasty dough, faint plastic, subtle leafy bitterness. Light bodied with fine, tingly carbonation. Zippy on the finish with further fruit tang, faintly toasted malts, wet grass and leaves. Nothing special, and slightly odd.
