Cask at Moon Under Water, Wolverhampton. Pours a dark copper with a small off-white head. The aroma is a blend of malts and citrus. In the mouth it is basically sweet with a creamy texture but also a little underlying bitterness. Malts, caramel and citrus dominate the flavour with traces of raisins and spice coming later. Finish is slightly dry. This is decent.

Cask at the Rochester Castle (JDW), Stoke Newington. Copper, off-white head. Toffee, earthy bitterness up front. Bitterness fades to leave vague berry notes. A sub-par bitter.
