Cock Tavern. Cask. Almost opaque dark brown beer. Residual tan head. Palate is light and a little dry. Mild licorice, traces of coffee, decent tangy fruits - both candy and dark. Finishes semi dry with mild roast malt bitterness. Interesting and very quaffable.

At the Cock Tavern brewpub. Cask. Hazy gold beer, little white head. Light semi dry palate. Typical Howling Hops rich hoppiness! Long may it continue! Skunky start with good fruity follow through! Bitterish orange, pithy lime, passion fruit. Good hop intensity. Finishes light and dry with bitter lime and grapefruit linger. Good stuff!

Cock Tavern Brewpub. Cloudy amber beer, little off white head. Palate is suprisingly soft and low carb for a Keg beer. Rich fruity hops! Semi sweet orange, pine and tropical fruits. Little passion fruit. Creamy malt underneath. Finishes smooth with more of the same. A superb hop profile but again the condition seems to be a little off - should have been a total belter but it’s very very nice. Hopefully the bottles will crisp up.

Cock Tavern Brewpub. Light haze on this gold beer. Little white head. Palate is soft and smooth. Low carbonation. Juicy orange hops. Marmalade and a touch of lemon and tangerine. Finishes neutral. Great hops as always but I can’t help but feel this beer coulda shoulda been in better condition by their standards.
