10/7/2025. Cask at the Ealing Beer Festival 2025. Not much life in the pour. Nutty, toasted, malty, hedgerow berries aroma. Dungy straw edge with slight berry tart notes. Not a big fan.

Cask at Ealing Beer Fest 25. A murky opaque chestnut brown. Frothy off-white head primarily sticks to the rim. Has jammy tang and malts, if somewhat low key. Light-medium bodied. Slick. Average-fizzy carbonation. Long dry somewhat astringent finish. Fine. Inoffensive.

Hand-pulled pint in the White Hart (Shifnal) on 11th June 2025. Amber body, clean and clear, on top a decent white crown that hung around for a while. Malty with a semi-sweet caramel base, hop bitterness kicks in towards the finish.

Hand-pulled half-pint at the Pheasant Inn and Brewhouse on 11th June 2025. First beer of a boozy day (again). Golden body, clean and bright, on top a white rocky head. Mosaic hops doing their thing, so loads of tropical fruit like aromas and flavours, semi-bitter and easy to down.

Cask at Lych Gate, Wolverhampton. Pours golden amber with a medium sized foamy almost white head and excellent lacing. The aroma is mainly malts and caramel with some hints of autumn fruits. In the mouth in fluctuates on the edges of sweet and bitter with malts, caramel and some traditional hoppiness. Later there are hints of honey, barley sgar and apricot. Bitterness wins out in the slightly dry finish. This is decent.

Cask at Old Bush Revived, Rowley Regis. Pours a very dark reddish-brown with foamy creamy-yellow head and good lacing. There’s malts and oats in the aroma. In the mouth it is sweet, but a little thin. Flavour has plenty of oats, and also roasted malts, liquorice and vanilla. Later on there are hints of chocolate and plums. Sweetness lasts into the finish. This is decent – but a bit lacking in body.
