Cask handpump at The Hop Pole, Aylesbury, Bucks 19-04-10 Pours mid/dark amber in colour but tricky in light of pub with off white head. Aroma is fruity and malty as is the taste. Bit chewy, some toffee, the strength shows and whilst this is decent is doesn’t offer that much, its a ’one trick pony’ but absolutely fine for being that. A chap ordered one whilst I was stood at the bar and asked for my opinion, I said it was fine but tasted very similar to the Grumpling (as I recall) Btw at that time I wasn’t aware of the Grumpling strength as it wasn’t on at this time, but now note it is also 4.6%, I will do a bit of detective work as whilst I’m not certain, this could be an alias?
