Chelmsford Beer Festival. Clear amber beer. Residual suddy white head. Light dry palate. Nice fresh hops. Piney fruit, grassy. Light semi dry finish. Really nicely hopped and tasty for it’s abv. That’s the good stuff done with. Now if I could rate on beer names this would get a zero. I nearly choked when someone explained this was a Tottenham beer. So distraught I was that the bar tender refunded me!

Cask at the Defectors Weld. It pours clear chesnut brown, with a very thin bubbly off-white head and low carbonation. The nose is wood, caramel sweetness, dust and nut. The taste is caramel, chocolate, toffee, roasted malt, coffee, toast and oak, with a bitter-dry finish. Finish duration is very, very long. A pleasant brew indeed.

Cask at the Rake. It pours slight hazy amber, with a thin foamy off-white head and low carbonation. The nose is fresh pine, orange, metal, dust, farmyard and a little sweet caramel. The taste is metal, lemon, grapefruit, lime, pine and grass, with a dry finish. Not bad, but not exciting either.

Cask at the Bree Louise. I gather this beer was brewed especially for the Stoke Newington Literary Festival. Pours a mosly clear gold with a foamy, white head. Some nuts, tasty malts and straw in the nose. Lightly sweet with leafy bitterness, some nuts and faint plastic. Light bodied with fine carbonation. Some mild citrus in the finish, more moderate toast, and some brittle leaves. Alright.
