Cask handpull at County Hotel, JDW, Ashford. Gold, with slight haze, thin lasting off white head. Aroma of sherberty grapefruit hop. Citrusy flavours in the mouth, reminds me a bit of Oakham JHB. Right up my alley. I wonder if it has Mount Hood hops in? A little watery in mouth, but the hops are excellent. Good beer.

Pale copper brown color, small white head. Flowery hoppy, honeyish nose. Lime, honey, pale malts and flowery hops in the flavor. Late bitterness in the aftertaste. Reasonably good session beer, but not really "anniversary beer" to celebrate.

500ml bottle from Notts BF 07. Way too strong and unsubtle. Clear chestnut colour with really thick beige head. Strong fruity aroma. Syrupy malt, hot alcohol. Plums are the fruits in the mouth. Good condition though.

Thanks to the owner of Aldgate for pulling this brew out and sharing it with us. Copper with a foamy white head. Aroma of fruits, sweet malts, hops, some floral. The fruits add a nice twist to the flvor here when I was expecting mainly hops. Finish is tart and bitter. Different, but enjoyable.

Cask-conditioned at the Cornubia, Bristol, 16/10/07. Chestnut with a slight, off-white head. A decent brown ale with a sweet malt aroma followed by a nutty flavour and a bitter finish. Good.

Very dark brown color, small off-white head. Slightly roasted and nutty aroma. Sticky hoppy, roasted coffeish flavor. Long bitter aftertaste. Light palate. A bit too attacking.
