Hand-pulled half-pint under the new name and pump font of ’Hereford Brewery, Muttley’s Revenge’ and at 4.8% ABV @ The Firs Club, Codsall: during their beer festival on 17 Nov 2012. Nice looking brew: deep amber with a ruby tint highlight: on top a full head of creamy foam (also cream in colour). Malty notes hit the nose: caramel and roasted peanuts with a toffee coating came to mind. The taste is also malts foremost: semi-sweet molasses with a fruit and nut chocolate bar feel at first, then a slight hop bitterness arrives towards the end of each sip. Well balanced and easy to drink.

Cask, handpump at The Victory, Hereford following the late cancellation of the Hereford ?Beer on the Wye, Beer Festival?, Hereford Rowing Club, Herefordshire Saturday 7th July 2012 Pours golden with a wispy, filmy white head and good clarity. Not too disimilar to the Wye Valley Flower Power just sampled in many respects possibly less sweet and with a dryer edge and slightly more bitter. Good bittersweet light fruity beer with a pleasant bite, drying towards end and with a middling bitterness. Not a bad beer at all. Up until now Wye Valley Flower Power was the best beer if the day but now this I think just surpasses it. A7 A4 T7 P4 Ov14 3.6

Cask, handpump at The Spread Eagle, Hereford Saturday 7th July 2012 Pours amber with slim white head. Bit fruity on nose, fruity with a sour tanginess in the mouth, probably a bit tired or past its best if truth be known. Not my thing at all. A6 A2 T4 P2 Ov9 2.3
