[6/8/2010 - Cask at the Nag’s Head, Reading] 5/3/6/3/11 (2.8) Amber. A little malt, a little blackcurrant, a little citrus, a little red wine, a little half-hearted, a little confused. Not up to Loddon’s usual standard. [rerate 28/9/2010 - cask at the Back of Beyond (JDW), Reading] Deep amber, slight off-white head, a little fizz. Flavours as before but with an added frisson of earthy wood. In excellent condition, which I assume has resulted in my slightly increased mark.

Cask, gravity at Banbury Beer Festival 07-05-10 Pours amber with a smattering of bubbles. Some light hops on the nose but these didn’t come through much in the mouth, fairly standard beer, some sweetness showing touch malty and whilst absolutely fine a little forgettable. A6 A3 F6 P3 Ov12 3.0

Cask-conditoned at the Seven Stars, Bristol 09/09/09. Amber coloured with a slight white head. Sweet, red fruit and caramel aroma. Flavour was much the same with a moderately bitter finish. Ok.

Cask Conditioned at The Castle, Furnival St., London
Hazy amber color. Light aroma, malty and fruity. Medium bodied, with a sweetish caramel flavor, light fruitness; the bitterness is below average. Pleasant but simple.

Cask at the Monks Retreat (JDW), Reading. Deep gold with a thin cream head; wet grain aroma; very thin and watery but with a pleasant malt flavour with a touch of citrus; dry bready finish. Rather ordinary - in fact a perfect example of an old fashioned Ordinary Bitter.
