A best bitter with a distinct malty flavour and a delicate addition of bittering hops with hints of fruit and spice in the aftertaste.

Cask-conditioned at the summer beer festival, The Royal Oak, Bath 19/7/08. This was too sweet for me. Amber coloured with a decent, off-white head. Big caramel and red fruit aroma. Flavour was sweet, with some graininess, toffee and a short bitter finish. No more than ok.

Cask at Royal Oak, Fritham, Hampshire. Deep brownish amber. Resiny hoppy nose. Medium dry with clean, rounded mouthfeel and light-medium body. Salty and lightly soapy with long heavily salty bitterish finish. A solid bitter.

Cask gravity at Pig’s Ear. Reddish chestnut colour with bubbly beige head. Nutty/toffee aroma. Crackers on aroma too. Bit of candy sugar and more nuts in the mouth. End could do with a bit more flavour. No great hop presence. Fine.

(Cask at Wenlock Arms, London, 31 July) Colour is dark amber with frothu head. Nose is malty and nutty with notes of dried fruit (prunes). Taste is malty, nutty with notes of dried fruit (arpicots, prunes) and a long bitter finish with a well balanced hoppy character. Nothing fancy, but very nice.
