Cask-conditioned at the Crosse Keys, London 06/10/09. Amber in colour with a white head. Slightly sweet aroma, with some red fruit and grassy hops. Flavour had a touch of caramel, apricot and a bitter finish. Forgettable.

(Cask at Wenlock Arms, London, 25 Nov) Amber colour with small white head. Fruity nose with dried fruit and raisins. Fruity taste with dried fruit (prunes, raisins) and earthy hops giving it a nice, bitter finish. Not exceptional, but a nice session bitter.

Cask handpull at Wenlock Arms. Chestnut beer with thick lasting off white head. Nich rich malts, some choc and toffee and good green hop aroma. Finish has more slightly acidic hop to blance the rich malts, but it doesn’t quite pull it off. Finish is too astringent on the back of the choc malts. You are expecting a warming dark malty bitter and then are hit with this hop astringency. Needs refinement
