Gravity cask at the Pig’s Ear BF 2010. Pours light amber with no head. Aroma holds nuts, malts, and some mild fruits. Flavor is average, with caramel and light malts, then some modest bitterness. Light to medium in body with faint carbonation. A touch syrupy. Normal malt finish with some nuts, light dryness and faint, fruity hops. Nice beer overall, quite drinkable.

On tap at the Magpie. Clear gold amber beer. Small white head. Light semi dry palate. A little creamy pale malt. Nice fresh orange orange hop with a trace of lime tang. Minerals. Finishes semi dry and smooth. Nice refreshing beer with great fresh fruit and very much superior to the insipid beer I had at last years Pigs Ear!

Cask på Bankers Draft, Sheffield 2 Okt 10. Gylden. Lavt hvitt skum. Beskjeden aroma. Smaken litt plommeaktig. Overgang til syrlig fruktig ettersmak. Litt tynn men OK.

Cask, handpump at The Hop Pole, Aylesbury, Bucks 16.08.10 Pours amber in colour with a thin white lacing for a head, good clarity but served just a tad warm. Soft bitterness in mouth, this is a safe and very straightforward bitter, totally unremarkable in any way, that said its fine and slipped down well enough. A6 A4 T6 P3 Ov12 3.1

Cask, handpump at The Hop Pole, Aylesbury, Bucks, 04.08.10 Pours reddy/amber with white head, good nick, good clarity. Fruity and toffee flavours abound but there is little else, not getting much bitterness, not getting much of a bite, but it is perfectly fine and is slipping down well. A6 A4 T6 P4 Ov12 3.2

Cask handpull at The Ship & Mitre, Liverpool. Amber colour with lasting beige head. Decent biscuit, good malts, good amber ale, seems a popular style now in the UK. Lots of digestive biscuit on finish. Touch of caramel. I love proper amber ales. Sweetish in mouth, good dry biscuit. I love it. Just needs some good hop on the end, but as it is, really drinkable.
