Guest Ale (cask) at the Peacock, Nottingham: copper colour (surprise!) with a creamy white head which lasted to the bottom, otherwise rather boring, some malt and hops, but not up to much.

Cask at GBBF 2006. Hazy amber. Little bit of weird yeast on teh aroma. Bit of fruit in mouth. Some dryness on end. Odd. Very drinkable and you can see that you would drink a lot of it even at 5%

Cask at the Ship Inn Langton Matravers, Dorset 20-06-06 and as imdownthepub has noted through a little detective work in the Lamb and Flag, Oxford 17-06-06. Golden in colour, sweet and pleasant hoppiness, bit on the dry side but very decent.

Bottle picked up in Swanage, Dorset 20-06-06. Dark reddy brown in colour, there is some nuttiness as description suggests, but quite fruity and a little on the sweet side malt and hops also show well. A fine if not particularly enthralling beer.

Cask at the Lamb and Flag, Oxford. Dark brown coloured beer that was both malty and sweet quite full flavoured and nice chewy edge to it very good.

[Cask at GBBF 2005] A red-brown beer with a thin brown head. The aroma is sweet malty with notes of roasted malt and over ripe fruit, but also hints of sulphur. The flavor is sweet malty with notes of prunes and over ripe fruit, leading to a roasted bitter end.

Cask at the Ipswich Beer Festival 2004, gravity dispense. Deep golden colour. IBF programme said "hoppy & fruity throughout", and I can’t object to that. Not impressive, though.
