Keg, half-pint at the Brewery Shed on 12th August 2024, first beer of the Brother-in-Laws birthday train trip to Ludlow. Clean and clear golden body, full white bubbly head that fell away a bit too quickly. Standard UK Lager, slightly grainy and sweet, but refreshing and an ideal start to a hot days drinking.

Cask at Greyhound, Stafford. Pours almost black with a small foamy tan head. There’s a generally fruity aroma with some roasted malts. In the mouth it is slightly bitter, but with also a fruity sourness and a creamy texture. Roast malts come through eventually, as do hints of liquorice. Finish is somewhat sour. This was OK, but I suspect it needs to be rerated as it was past its best.

Cask at Cromwells, Shrewsbury. Pours golden yellow with a small almost white head and good lacing. There’s malts in the aroma – but not much else. In the mouth it fluctuates between being slightly sweet and slightly bitter. Malts are again the mainstay, but now joined by traditional hop and traces of marmalade, honey and berry fruits. Bitterness wins out in the finish. I don’t normally go a bomb on golden ales, but this is decent.

Keg @ Cromwell's Tap House. Pours a hazed golden yellow with a good white head. Smooth tropics form the base of its character, with strong pineapple and banana notes coming through well. Lovely fruity haze.
