Cask gravity at Battersea BF 2007. Dark brown with no head. Dullish dark mild, not much flavour. Some dark toffee, but mostly tasteless water. But it’s a mild, what do you expect?

Cask handpull at Cherry Tree, Haddenham. Pale copper colour with lasting off white head. Smoke/earthy orange citrus hop aroma, some yeast, but the aroma is about the tangerine/orange earthy hop. Reasonable fullness in mouth, some sweet juicy malt. Nice swallow with more orange tangerine/clementine. Some hop on end. Some dryness, more fruit on finish. Pleasant easy drinking bitter.

Bottle, picked up at Tuckers Maltings, Newton Abbott 14-11-06. Golden in colour, whilst there were hops obviously present throughout, it wasn’t not as hoppy as I was hoping for. This was fine enough but ultimately a bit unexciting.

Fruity and roasted taste with coffee, chocolate, blueberries, crowberries and a nice citrussy bitterness i the finish. Slightly sweet notes of cherries hidden somewhere in the middle.

Cask at Oliver Twist, Stockholm. Black. Aroma of licorice and lemon. Medium sweet with evident beechwood smokeiness, notes of tobacco and coffee. Creamy roasty malt gives it rounded mouthfeel, while smoke and salt fight for attention in the finish.

Bottle, 4.5%. Rough, citric hop aroma. Hazy golden colour. Lots of flavour hops. High bitterness, which gets a bit sour after a while.
