Handpull cask at the Beer Hall, Staveley. Amber and clear with a small uneven off-white head. Malty aroma with additional notes of redcurrant, milk chocolate, cherry candy. Taste is bittersweet and a trifle metallic. The bittering hop asserts itself fairly aggressively right at the finish. More cherry and a touch of wood shavings in the aftertaste. There isn't so much character to this, but it's well made, and the simplicity grows on me throughout the sip.

Cask at the Pup and Duckling, Solihull. Poured a crystal clear reddish amber with a frothy white head. The aroma is malt, nutty, woody hop. The flavour is moderate bitter light sweet with a light, watery, malt, dry light pepper spice, light fruit, light metallic hop bitter palate and a long bitter finish. Medium bodied with soft carbonation.

On cask at the Guildford Arms. Appearance - deep copper to red. Very autumnal. Nice neat head. Nose - some red fruit and toffee. Taste - redcurrants and caramel biscuits. Palate - light to medium bodied with a creamy texture and a long dry finish. Overall - nice bitter. Or is it an amber ale?

Cask at The Hanging Bat. Clear amber body with a dense beige head. Good lacing. Aroma of eggy fart, wood and autumn leaves. Flavour of weak tea, caramel, milk chocolate and a peppery finish. Thin body with an oily mouthfeel. No carbonation. Weird smell for such a mild flavour. The fartiest beer I’ve ever tried.

Hand-pulled half-pint in the Whippet Inn, a micropub in Litchfield on 25th April 2015. Red by name, red by nature (well almost), the off-white head being sat on an amber body with a slightly red hue to it. Malts rule the semi-sweet taste and aroma, with the hops giving a dry and mildly bitter finish.
