Cask at the Barrel Vaults, St Pancras, 03/10/2025.
Amber pour topped with a lasting light beige head.

Taste comprises dried red berries, light biscuit crumb, fruit loaf, dark malts.
Medium bodied, soft carbonation, drying close with a modest bitter edge.
Not bad.

Cask handpull at Barrel Vault JDW St Pancras. Haze gold colour lasting white head. Its a light citrus golden ale. Lots of lime and some spice. Coriander I guess. Certainly some decent spice flavours. Some hop character on the finish. OK spiced golden ale.

Nice beer. Has some pleasant dried berry notes, earthy-leafy hops, toasted malts, a little toffee. Fine condition. Perhaps a touch overly bitter in the finish but it’s not bad.

[Cask at the Old Manor (JDW), Bracknell.] An amber pour with a thin off-white head; citrus aroma; malty caramel taste; then some chewy fudge and piney hops to finish. Rather too sweet.
