Oldham Beer Festival 2024. Clear golden with a glow. Hoppy caramels evident in aroma, taste, and through its smooth texture. They are tasty.

Saturday 13th April 2024, Bertie, Margie and I in Tamworth on a pub crawl. Hand-pulled half-pint in the Sir Robert Peel. Amber body, white crown. Tropical fruit nose and initial taste, malts kick in nicely before a bittering finish.

Hand-pulled pint at the Pheasant Inn and Brewhouse on 26th March 2024 during the wake of my old friend Stu Harding, a lovely chap. Clean and clear light golden body, white crown. Hoppy with a slight citrus leaning in both the nose and taste, easy going and an idea beer to have with a few ham sandwiches and crisps!

Cask at Tap n Barrell, Wigan. Pours gold with minimal off-white head and excellent lacing. The aroma has floral hops and grains. In the mouth iy was superficially sweet, but with some underlying sharpness and a creamy texture. The flavour is basically floral hops with some hints of barley sugar, spices and ginger. Finish is decidedly dry. This is entirely reasonable.

Cask at Borough Arms, Crewe. Pours golden amber with a small off-white head, good lacing and medium carbonation. Floral hops and grains to the fore in the aroma, plus some hints of malts. In the mouth it starts off sweet and creamy but with a little underlying bitterness. This bitterness gradually increases and oranges and marmalade come through along with hints of ginger and spices. Finish is bitter and somewhat sticky. It’s reasonable.
