Clear gold beer. Very dry palate, slightly soft. Nicely balanced straight malt and fruity hop but the beer is ruined by a sulphourous note and a stupidly overdry palate.

Cask at the Standard Bearer (JDW), Stevenage. Deep amber with a parse cream head; light citrus aroma with some grassy hops; slightly tart fruit flavour, then a pleasant prolonged nettley bitterness, mixed with some meadow hay. Clean and refreshing.

Cask@ Spitting Feathers Tap, Chester. Deep dark brown looks with a thin tan head. Roasted nose with some dark chocolate lurking. Flavour was similar with prevalent roasted malt, dark fruit, and a fullish earthy quality. Lingering bitter finish. A tidy stout that slipped down just fine. Stick the kettle on.....

Cask gravity at Reading BF 2011. Light brown colour. Thin beige collar of bubbles. More toffee malt than anything else. Some peppery hop but mostly a toffeeish bitter. Not overly hoppy. Fine.

Cask at the Crosse Keys, JDW. Clear, rich, dark red-brown pour with a modest head. Plenty of dark, ripoe fruits on the nose, some caramel malts. Very sweet flavor, tons of fruit punch, cherries, grapes, berries, mild caramel and straight sugar. Medium to full in body with fine carbonation. Warming finish, lots of sugars, some ripe fruit, subtle booze, more berries. One of the better English barley wines I’ve had; I don’t like sour malts. Unrefined and slightly in-your-face, this is a decent brew.
