Ye Olde Bull Ring Tavern, Ludlow. Cask. Clear pale gold beer, decent pale cream colour head. Palate is smooth with fine carbonation. Nice condition. Light malts, softish and with a little creamy sweetness. Light esters are well integrated. Modest citric hops on the back end, Light finish. It’s all very smooth and civilised and pretty drinkable!

Pint at The Royal Hill Inn, Oswestry. A good British bitter with grass, malts, grain and a dry bitterness to see it home.

12th May 2012 saw me on a pub crawl of Shrewsbury: First up was the ‘Castle Vaults’ and a hand pulled pint of this. Golden body, bright and clean looking: small white head. Nose of woody, earthy, nuttiness: with a hint of malty molasses. More malts in the taste than the smell: easy blend of flavours, fruitier than the aroma too, with a semi-bitter finish. I like Three Tuns brews in general and this is no exception.

Cask at GBBF 2011, Day 2. Pours clear, yellow-gold with a light film for a head. Wet hay and cereal aroma. Light sweet flavor, tangy grains. Light bodied with fine carbonation. Some wood, hard hops, grain and grass to finish. Not too bad.
