Cask at the Claude du Vall (JDW), Camberley. Amber with a scummy cream head; herbal aroma, with freshly cut grass; in the mouth there’s an immediate herbal, grassy, bitterness, before some tropical fruit appears; the body is sweet and oily, and the finish is rather tart.This is so much better than the bottled version.

(on tap) Gold copper colour with slight white head. Aroma is subtle - candy with a hint of hops. Medium body, light carbonation. Flavour starts with sweet candy and light malt with a hint of port, and has a rich toffee and hoppy bitter finish. Overall a nice stronger ale - rich but very drinkable.
