[i] Cask at The Hop Pole Aylesbury, Bucks, 08-11-07 [/i] Pours dark brown with a great cushion of white creamy head. Aroma ok but nothing of note save for some malt. Initially creamy taste (but that was probably just getting through the head) there was a suprising bitterness about this beer (and I wrote these exact notes in the pub without looking at the commercial description) so pleased that I picked that up, as i’m not always the most observant. This was not bad at all, though I did rush it a little.

[i] Cask at Far From The Madding Crowd, Oxford, 07-10-07 [/i] Poured dark golden in colour with a thin white bubbly head. This beer was pleasantly fruity with a nice lacing of sweet malts, tasty and quite full flavoured, but with less bitterness than anticipated.
