Cask gravity at White Cliffs BF 2007. Copper/orange colour with bubbly off white head. Rather nice vanilla flavour. Big and syrupy beer. Nice heat on end. I really like it. Good malty aroma, nice vanilla/peach flavour. Some hop on finish.

Cask Pale orange beer with B.C."H.". Very subdued nose, with just some unspecific malts. Very malty, even patisserie flavours, cookie notes, with a rather good UK hops ending. Light to medium bodied, rather thin for S. Hughes habits. Very surprising indeed, but all in all a nice beer.

Cask handpull at Wenlock Arms. I have seen this at a lot of festivals, but never had it. Black/ruby colour with lasting beige head. Bit of sickly malt. No real hop but dryish finish. Syrupy malt. In fact very syrupy malt. Couldn?t drink too much of this. Nothing bad at all about it, but it?s like liquid malt. Re-rate. Really good fruity malty mouthfeel is great. Lovley beer

I think I had a contaminated bottle: when I poured barely 4oz into an imperial pint glass, the whole glass rapidly filled with foam. The primary flavor was sour. Some hints at fruity malts and maybe spicy hoppiness. Garnet color - big brownish head.

Cask @ Old Green Tree, Bath. Dark ruby-brown. Fruity aroma with lots of malt. The malts on the palate are gentle, slightly toffeeish, with a biscuity/fruity accent in the finish. The alcohol brings a little dryness. Excellent.
