Cask at the Plough in Kingham. Thai was a very plain tasting ale that was very watery but with moments of clean fruit hop and grass. Probably good for a session but dull.

Cask at Swan and Castle, Oxford Pours a golden amber with a sparse off-white head and good lacing. A palcid nose with vjust some hints of fruits. In the mouth it has a sweet and fruity taste – almost like a dry cider. Initially marmalade is to the for, but other flavours come through later, Ornages, honey, ginger, with hints of pears and spices. Finish is dry and fruity. A simple beer with a complex taste – interesting !

Cask (Red Lion, Overton) - Golden/light amber in colour. Fruity and slightly floral aroma. The taste is also fruity and floral and features notes of marmalade and sultanas. Quite nice for being so simplistic.
