Gravity cask at the Alma. Clear, flat gold. Sweaty malts, faint grass and ripe fruits in the nose. Dankish flavor, faintly sweet, sweaty more. Light bodied with tangy burn and no carbonation. Some fruity notes to finish. Not great condition.

Cask at The Dartmouth Arms, London. A dark golden beer with a lazing beige head. The aroma has notes of malt and caramel as well as lighter notes of metal. The flavor is sweet with notes of malt and caramel. I find it a bit boring.

Cask at the Dartmouth Arms, London NW5 on 19th October 2010. Copper with lacing white head. Crisp, light and bitter with malt and fruits in aroma. Cheesy note as well. A developing basic, bitter finish. Kight mouthfeel. Rather pleasant, drinkable and agreeable.

From cask at Dartmouth Arms. Pours clear and golden yellow with a small white head. Aroma is mild fruity. Bitter, slight malty and light fruity too. Bitter and fruity into the finish.

Cask@The Dartmouth Arms. Golden colour, small white head. Aroma is fruits, wood, nuts, some grass and mild notes of nectar and sap. Flavour is quite much the same. Quite dry, but still nice. Hayish grassy finish.

Cask gravity at Reading BF 06. Easy drinking session bitter. Gold, thin white head. Some subtle hop. Yes, very drinkable. Could happily sip this all day. 3.0 Re-rate cask gravity at The Red Lion, Snargate. For a 3.5% beer its superb. Looks good, Burton snatch aroma, some caramel on swallow and then reasonably hard hop on end.
