10/7/2025. Cask at the Ealing Beer Festival 2025. Stewed fruits and candy aroma. Ripe mashed stone fruits. Sharp bitterness develops. Better than Fakey but still not a bug fan.

10/7/2025. Cask at the Ealing Beer Festival 2025. Barman recommended a taster first. “Whatever was intended wasn’t achieved”. Musty, roasted, sour orange, straw aroma with some burnt plastic. Sorry. Miss.

Beer Number #18 at the Clitheroe Beer Festival 2025. Easy, watery and fruity, just what is required at this stage of a summer day festival weather event in May, in the very pretty town centre. Hoppy and tropical fruit balance here

Deadication beer to actress Mary Astor, a favourite of the silent era, but also continued a successful career when sound was added to the vision, she was born on this day in 1906. This Sound & Vision is light with its tropical fruit notes, almost watery, but not thin. Easy strength and texture.

"Sarcasm is the lowest form of wit, but the highest form of intelligence." I have to agree with Oscar here. Very sweet porter, that's not too agreeable with me, a little too cake for me, and usually I'm not picky with my specialist beers.
