Tap at the Pup and Duckling, Solihull. Poured a clear copper colour with a thin white head. The aroma is malt, light grassy hop. The flavour is moderate bitter with a light fruit, big woody hop bitter palate and a long bitter finish. Medium bodied with soft carbonation.

Cask at the moon under water Watford Jdw. A clear golden orange coloured pour with a lasting creamy white head. Aroma is a little eggy, jammy fruits, amber malt, cranberry. Flavour is composed of nutty twiggy malts, light pine, jammy fruit, woody bark. Palate is semi sweet, little resin, moderate carbonation.. Not all that Christmas, nice Douglas fur action.

Cask at the Old Manor (JDW), Bracknell. An amber pour with a loose white head; fresh herbal aroma with traces of mint and thyme; a pleasant herbal bitterness over a sweet caramel malt body; then a drier finish with lingering bitter herbs. Very moreish.

Pigs Ear Day 1. Cask. Clear amber beer, a few pale cream colour bubbles. Palate is light and has a decent fine crispness. Clean malts, mildly tangy caramel. Tangy dried fruits. Mild orange peel, a light citric zip. Light finish. Decent.

Cask @ Old Chapel, Darwen. Copper-gold with a small head. Malty bitter that’s quite light in its character.

Cask at the Last Post, Southend-on-Sea on 23rd December 2015. Copper with an off-white part lacing film. Malt aroma with savoury nuttiness. Nutty and biscuit malty in-mouth. A malty, then bitter, finish. Zingy mouthfeel and medium body afford easy drinking.

Cask at Pig’s Ear 2015. It pours clear deep amber with a small white head. The nose is toasty, warming, bitter-sweet, caramel, brown bread, fruity cake, earth, raisin and candied peel. The taste is bitter, spicy, resin, waxy grapefruit, varnish, pine, mild astringency, pithy action and pepper with a dry, sort of spiced finish. Medium body and fine carbonation. Overall not bad for what it is, but quite basic for Oakham.

Half pint, cask at William Wilberforce (JDW), shared with Finn. Clear dark brown in body colour. Rich lacing blanketing the glass. Smell of dark berries and caramel malts. Blended taste profile of dark malts, black currant and some kind of spices. Ends with a malt-fruity touch. Medium to thin bodied. Works fine for me (Hull 25.11.2015).
