Cask at the Old Oak Inn, Horsely Woodhouse, 15-08-08 Pours pale yellow with a white bubbly head, this beer is crystal clear. Nice persistent buzzing bitterness, staying dry at the end, good fruity bite that fades into that dryness, some soft malts. Pleasant beer.

[i] [b] Cask, at the Turf Tavern, Oxford 26-05-08 [/b] [/i] Pours mid gold in colour, some citrus on the nose is immediately apparent in the mouth along with some pleasant raw root ginger, giving a warm burn. Alll of this is underpinned very nicely with a honey spiciness, not bad at all.

Cask-conditioned at the Bag O’Nails, Bristol 20/11/07. Pale gold with a good white head. Citrus and grassy hop aroma. Flavour had a touch of sweet malt before the hops took over. A decent bitter finish. Enjoyable.

Cask-conditioned at the Bag O’Nails, Bristol 18/7/07. An amber bitter with a moderate white head. This was very well balanced with an aroma which of floral hops with some supporting biscuity malt. The flavour was a similar mix, starting slightly sweet before a decent dry finish. A good session beer.

Cask gravity London Drinker BF 07. Decent bitter, bit of tea, actually quite a lot of tea. Some bitterness, bit of toffee. The tea though is too much (especially if you don’t drink or like tea).

Cask at the Old Oak (brewpub) 26-12-06 Standard looking bitter that is fairly standard in taste as well, the weakest of the Leadmill beers that I had some lingering bitterness but otherwise lacking in character.
