Bottle thanks to allmyvinyl. Appearance - deep amber to brown, fluffy off-white head. Nose - toffee, brown bread and going into malt loaf. Taste - chewy toffee and caramel, more malt loaf. Palate - medium bodied, creamy middle, lightly roasty finish. Overall - good example of the style.

[Cask at the Old Manor (JDW), Bracknell.] A dowdy looking golden amber pour with a ring of white head; stone fruit aroma; biscuity malt body with a fruity taste; and a dry finish. A refreshing summer ale.

7/3/2024. Tap at Flat Iron Square, London. Pours cloudy pale orange with a small off-white head. Aroma is creamy, milky, mango sorbet. Started a little bitter but sweetness develops well without being overpowering. Light to moderate body, a little thin (doesn’t hide its abv), low carbonation. Warmed to it.

500ml bottle: BBE January 2024. Drank at home on 27th October 2023. Mahogany coloured body, clean and clear, decent off-white crown. Lovely traditional English Bitter feel to this, caramel sweetness tempered with some serious hop action for a bitter finish. --- Beer aliased from original tick of West Berkshire Good Old Boy on 20 Feb 2015 at 14:11 - Score: Appearance - 6 | Aroma - 6 | Flavor - 7 | Texture - 6 | Overall - 7.5. Original review text: 20th Feb 2015: hand-pulled half-pint in my local Wetherspoons. Ruby with an off-white head that gave some heavy and impressive lacing. Red berries, hedgerow fruits and roasted maltiness in both the nose and taste. Semi-sweet with a caramel hint throughout, mild bitterness in the finish, I liked it.
