Cask @ JDW Elgin [271211] 3/3/6/3/9 2.4
Amber..clear..dense white head..some lacing...very little aroma....Taste of caramel and biscuity malts, yeast, earthy bitter hops and an odd offputting component in there I can’t describe...plain taste...Palate - soft carb....thin body..bitter...wheaty.....very dry finish...lingers..weetabix cereal.
Overall - Almost no aroma, taste plain and a bit odd, most of the flavour in the finish. Nothing christmassy about this beer.

Cask at the Old Manor (JDW), Bracknell. Amber with a toght white head; lacking aroma; thin malty flavour with a touch of hops to finish. This did nothing for me at all.

[Cask at the Back of Beyond (JDW), Reading] Pale gold with a barely-there white head and a slight fizz. Lemon up front with an unfortunate touch of soap. Grassy, lager-like hops come through in a slightly sour, moderately bitter finish. Not for me, and not remotely Christmassy. Very disappointing.

Medium very white lasting head. Paleish yellow body. Fruity bubblegum aroma with vanilla notes. Sweetish-dryish banana bubblegum taste. Soft, mild mouthfeel. Thinnish body. Dry wooden fruity aftertaste with metallic notes. Quite nice, but a bit artificial. (0.25l cask, The Carpenter’s Arms, Marble Arch, London.)
