Cask at the Prince Arthur (JDW), Fleet. Reddish brown with a thin cream head; fruity malt aroma; tastes of purple fruits, with a touch of spice and caramel, but with a rather watery body; the finish is dry and lightly hopped. A reasonable bitter.

(Cask at Junction Tavern, London) Beer was browner than bitters usually are. Otherwise this was quite an ordinary bitter. Perhaps bitterness was a bit more intense than I would have expected. Nice session beer.

Golden. A little bit buttery. The taste is bland, creamy and buttery, maybe with some okay bready malt late. Not my pint, though.
