Cask @ Riverside, in the town of Dunblane. Dark golden with a creamy head. Quite hoppy for me with caramels evident, not particularly brown ale in design other than towards that colour. Pretty good either way.

Cask at the Hope Tap (JDW), Reading. Nice copper colour with a beige head and a middling fizz. Minerals and twigs up front, a little sweet toffee cake and digestive biscuit behind. The minerals are a bit too prominent. Sub-par.
