Cask at Prince Regent, Herne Hill, London SE24 on 1st June 2011. Clear copper with thick creamy white head of foam. Berry fruit aroma, then sweet caramel malt and some citric hop in background. Pleasant textured mouthfeel, and quite a sweet aftertaste. Very well kept by pub, beer by no means a favourite but I ended up enjoying it rather more than envisaged.

[Cask at the Belle Vue, High Wycombe] Deep brown, slight off-white head. Fruity at first, alcohol is evident, chocolate comes through in the finish. Quite syrupy, too sweet by the end.

Medium golden colour. The aroma is malty with a little bit of pedio. Earthy character, definitely on the sweet side, with maybe some sulphury notes. Not a terribly dynamic beer.

Cask at The Britannia, Richmond, London. It pours clear golden yellow, with a thin fluffy white head and soft carbonation. The nose is bread, yeast, orange and grass. The taste is lemon, lime, pineapple, orange, hay, grass, honey, light spice and bread. It is a crisp, fruity, easy-drinking session ale.

Gravity cask at the London Drinker BF. Clearish gold pour with an easy head. Nose holds some sugar and a bit of fruit. Flavor is mildly malty with a decent bitterness to balance. Light bodied with fine carbonation. Finishes with mild fruits and bitters. Interesting and decent.

Cask at the Union Rooms (JDW), Plymouth. Deep mahogany brown with a red tint and a loose cream head; aroma of rich malts and purple fruit; however it disappointingly thin in the mouth with weak fruit flavours - cherries and blackberries - then burnt sugar; before a caramel finish.
