Cask at the Old Windmill, Coventry on 31st October 2025. Clearish golden amber with shallow yet dense white foam and partial lacing. Spicy, pungent aroma. Spiced fruitiness in-mouth, and a finish of hazelnut malts with spiced fruits. Some bitterness in the mix. Velvet smooth mouthfeel and a full body.

Hand pulled half pint at the Crown Inn, Oakengates on 27th October 2025. Clean and clear copper coloured body, off white head that stayed. Semi sweet caramel feel to this cask Dunkel, don't see many Real Ales in this style, but this was fine and maybe more UK breweries should try doing one.

Keg at The Good Intent, Brum. Clear light gold. Thin foamy white head. Aroma is metallic and malty with a citrus streak. Flavourwise it is malty with a metalic and light citrus streak. Light. Thin. Soft-fizzy carbonation. Long dry somewhat astringent finish. Nice enough but ultimately uninteresting lager.

Cask at Bird in Hand, Stafford. Pours a slightly hazy golden yellow with a medium sized foamy almost white head and good lacing. The aroma has floral hops, peaches and rich tea biscuits. In the mouth it is sweet but with a little underlying sharpness and a creamy texture. Flavour has peaches, floral hops and chewy pink sweets wit hints of biscuits and caramel later on. Sharpness lasts into the finish. This is decent and interesting – but I wouldn’t like to have to drink a whole pint !

Cask at Pickled Pig, Stafford though I have drunk it before. Pours golden amber with a small foamy almost white head and good lacing. There’s nuts, floral hops and general bitterness in the aroma. In the mouth it is quite bitter (but not overwhelmingly so) with a texture that varies between creamy and watery. Flavour has traditional hops, oranges and autumn fruits with traces of citrus peel and kiwi coming through later. Finish is slightly dry. This is decent.
