Handpull cask at the Kings Head, Leicester. Middle of the road golden. Clear with a spotty white head and a lot of lacing. Light notes of tropical fruit hop on the nose combined with a sweet biscuity malt. Bittersweet hoppy taste with a chlorinous astringency near the finish. Not particularly polished but still worth drinking.

Handpull cask at the Kings Head, Leicester. Light gold, clear. A film of white head sits on top. The hoppy notes can't compete with the vegetal sulphur. Taste is just as confused: the hoppy bitterness feels cut with bleach, and there's a meaty note to the maltiness in the initial sip. It's all a bit wrong!

Really liked this beer tried at the Cardinals Hat Lincoln. Pretty much black cooour with a tight tan head. Aroma roasted malts blackcurrant abound but also liquorice hints. Taste light sweet to medium bitter roasted coffee to finish.

Cask at the Euston tap. A clear pale amber coloured pour with a a lasting speckled head. Aroma is base malts, toast, light herbal hop,. Flavour is composed of semi sweet, grainy, Base malts, toast, grassy hop, light dried fruit. Palate is grainy, decent cask condition. Pretty standard. Same old paradigm.
