Cask at the Crosse Keys. Pours a clear, dark gold with a filmy white head. Ripe citrus and toast in the aroma. Light to medium sweet flavor, oddly roasty and smokey, some leafy bitters, some ash and wood. Medium bodied with fine carbonation. Scorched earth, slight grass, citrus rind in the finish. Overall quite decent.

Cask handpull at County Hotel, JDW, Ashford. Copper colour, lasting beige head. It’s a fruity full bitter with some fruit salad and some hop bite on finish. It could be good but not sure this is quite right. It’s good, but I can’t tell you why.

Cask at the Rake. Pours dark brown with a stong, tan head. Dar, roast malt aroma. Semi-sweet with lots of char and tobacco, roasty bitterness. Light to medium in body with fine carbonation. Finishes lightly sweet with lots of lingering char, tar and bitter coffee, plus some light cheese. Really good overall.
