Cask at the Standing Order. Pours clear amber with a bubbly off-white head. Aromas of toffee and nuts. Taste is hellish sweet, toffee and little else. Sticky finish. Didn’t finish it.

Cask tasted at the Standing Order (11/08/2016). Clear red amber colour with minimal white head. Aroma of caramel, nuts and malts. Taste is almost the same, nuts and malts with some caramel on the background. Soft carbonation and watery aftertaste. Next one please!

Cask @ JDW Elgin
Amber, clear, dense thin white head, good lacing
Aroma - soft fruity malts, light citrus hops, light caramel toffee
Taste - light caramel, fruity malts, hint of pear, touch of berry fruits, bit of toffee
Palate - light to medium body, bit oily, smooth palate. Finish - some toasted malt comes through, light fruity caramel, soft bitter hops, light bitter bit toasted lingering finish
Fairly good bitter - I though it was quite decent - it tasted fresh to me

Cask@Fat Cat Brewery Tap, Norwich. Amber colour, small off-white head. Aroma is caramel, some wood, sour berries and mild herbal notes. Flavour is sour wood, berries, wooden and some mild ripe fruits. Probably some sourness infection in this one... Need to re-rate when possibility is given.
