Cask. I took this down as "Boatland Bitter" but guess it’s this one. Slightly hazy pale amber with a creamy off-white head. A little fruit and butter in the nose. Thin and watery with lots of caramel and fruit with a subdued bitterness. 190110

Cask@Bodega, Newcastle. Drunk in haste en route to the ferry. Amber looks with a minimal off white head. Some understated citrus and hoppiness in the nose and flavour. Dryish bitter finish. A wee bit thin, but drinkable enough.

Cask handpull at The Dispensary, Liverpool. Slightly sulphur on aorma. Sharp hop on aroma and on finish. Light lemon as per usual from Ossett. It’s an ok golden ale.

2nd December 2008. Very dark brown beer - light just passes through. Doesn’t look or feel like a stout! A little dark malt but fruity and tangy rather than roasty or chocolatey! Not bad but it ain’t a stout!

Cask at the Nascot Arms, Watford. Reddish copper with a thin off-white head; fruity and malty aroma; sweet with chewy malts and some red fruit flavours; the finish is dry and slightly spicy. OK, but rather boring.

Cask handpull at Market Porter, Borough with MagicDave. Pale gold, thin white head. Slightly yeasty slightly oxidised aroma. Some hop sting on the finish, but not enough to make it interesting.

Cask at The Hop Pole, Aylesbury, Bucks, 09-12-09 Pours warm gold with a white head. The bitterness is quite raspy, pithy and with a grapefruit being the most noticeable fruit in what is clearly quite a citrus flavour, furry bitterness on roof of mouth. Starts sweet but ending quite dry a good beer all round. A6 A4 F7 P3 Ov13
