Cask at the Reading beer festival. My hundredth mild! In the company of Ian, who judging by the state of hin at the time probably doesnโt remember it. Anyhoo, Iโve seen this fairly local beer at the festival for the last few years and thought it was roumd about time I tried it. And itโs good. The obvious honey sweetness is well balanced by the bitterness from the roasted malts. Good effort, I liked this. Nice easy drinker.

Cask at the Reading Beer Festival 2012. Pours clear, golden-red-brown with a white foam head. Some dry, sweet toast in the nose, along with leaves and berries. Light sweet flavor with faint toasty caramel, some musty leaves, berries, dark sugars. Light bodied with fine carbonation. Sweet finish with vague honey impressions, light toast, berries, wet leaves. Slight syrupy sugars. Not bad, not great.

Cask handpull at The White Lion, Fawcott, Oxon. Lovely dark brown colour, thin lasting beige head. Really good mild, lovely smooth flavour and mouthfeel. Some honey flavours. Some honey on aroma. Really impressive beer.

Cask gravity at Oxford Beer Festival, 15-10-09 Pours dark amber head possibly white head but never lasted long enough that I could be certain. Soft in the mouth with honey and caramel most noticeable, touch of honey on nose, its pleasant enough and around this side of the bar incredibly popular. A6 A3 F6 P3 Ov12 3.0
