Bottle at home in Hackney - picked up from Waitrose. Pours clear, pale copper with a frothy, off-white head. Light sweet flavour with notes of toasted malts, a little English yeast, earthy and leafy hops, a little citrus peel. Light bodied with average carbonation. Balanced finish, clean bitterness, nutty accents, earth. Tasty and drinkable.

Drucken på fat på Bishop Gustaf Malmö. Låg kolsyra, mjuk och len, främst maltiga smaker av bröd och nötter och en lätt honungssötma. Subtil och elegant. Gott

Bright golden coloured with a thin white head. Resembles Old Peculier but is toned down. The same in taste but body is much lighter. It has a toffee, peppery hop and slight, musty ginger flavour with citrus notes on the smooth, grapefuity and floral finish. Not bad.

A bright golden amber pour with a ring of white head and gentle carbonation. Aroma of malt, dry fruits with melanoidic edge. Similar taste with some biscuit and red berries and a dry finish with a little spicy bitterness. A pleasant rich, super drinkable bitter.

440ml can. Pours a clear amber with a small, foamy, short lived, off-white head that laces. Sweet aroma of toasted bready malt, caramel, honey, orange and floral hops. Sweet flavour of toasted bready malt, honey, toffee, dried peach and spicy hops in a dry, mild bitter finish. Light body with an oily to watery texture and soft carbonation. Crushable and pretty standard for the style.

Cask @ The Cover Bridge Inn, East Witton. Clear dark mahagony with a small beige head. Aroma of malts, chocolate, berries and vinegar. Taste of red fruits, chocolate, plums, treacle malts and dried fruits. Sweet-ish and vinous. Low bitterness. Low carbonation. Smooth velvety mouthfeel. Lovely. I want to have this again as it might be possible that I do prefer the bottled version but I‘d like to be sure.

Cask @ The Cover Bridge Inn, East Witton. Aroma of grains, booze, straw and lemons. Taste of biscuits, lemons, grains and straw. Low bitterness. Low carbonation. Not that convincing, rather disappointing even.
