Cask at the Crosse Keys, JDW, London. Labled as "Pardoe’s Bumblehole". Pours clear gold with a soft, white foam head. Doughy malt nose with light hay. Very sweet flavor, doughy, with white sugar, straw and vanilla frosting. Some wet straw, too. Light to medium bodied with soft, fine carbonation. Very sweet to finish, lightly sticky, with sugary dough, faint citrus. Surprisingly heavy-duty. Alright, even with the sweetness.

Cask handpull at Crosse Keys Spoons. clear gold beer. Thin white head. Some sweetness from the honey. Yes sweetness but otherwise quite a drinkable honey beer. Fairly decent. I quite liked it.

Cask at the Olde Swan Inn, Netherton. Pours golden with a small head. Aroma is honey and buiscuity. Taste is sweet to start. Some buiscuit. Honey on the aftertaste. Not the most flavourful but refreshing.

On gravity at the Royal Oak, Bath 25/02/10. Deep brown with a slight, off-white head. A sweet, strong bitter with nuts, some red fruit and a slightly bitter finish. Ok.
