Fra cask på The George Inn, Borough High Street: klar kobbergylden med fint skum som varer. En god, klassisk bitter med god maltsmak, urter, gress og furunål.

Den årlige pilgrims turen til Borough Market har ført meg til gamle og kjære omgivelser på The George i Borough High Street. Fra cask: klar gylden med fint skum som varer. Urter, citrus, gress og lys malt i en fin maltkropp. Behagelig bitterhet i avslutningen.

Spotty beige head on a dark reddish brown coloured body.
Malt, winey & bitter aroma.
Medium bodied, sharp in the tongue with a cloying back.
Heavy malt, pine, grapefruit & citrussy tastes with a tangy hopped finish.
Nice enough.

Cask. Pours a bright mahogany with moderate foamy head. Very light aromas of toasted malts and butter. Flavors of soft bready malts with just a hint of hops. Meh. Light malt beverage…

Keg at the Battle Axes, near Borehamwood. Lightly hazed gold with a white head. The aroma is pleasant - mainly sweet marmalade. The taste is rather dulled down though - a generic citrus flavour set against sweetish malt with a touch of pine in the moderately bitter finish. It's not bad; it's just very muted and lacks life. Typical faux craft really.

Keg at Black Swan in Stratford-upon-Avon - Hazy gold body with a fluffy white top. Easy going citrus tang, some sweet hopping in there. Straight forward sessionable beer.
