Cask at the Hobgoblin, Reading. This was a case of guess the fruit, the bar staff didn’t know what was supposed to be in it; unfortunately raspberry wasn’t the answer I came up with at a blind tasting. The beer was gold with a thin cream head; aroma was grainy with a touch of orange; certainly fruity flavours, I got dry cherry and grape, but with hindsight there was probably some raspberry in there somewhere. Bitter and dry to finish. Overall rather unbalanced, lacking any fruit sweetness.

Cask gravity at London Drinker BF 08. Old gold with disappearing head. Some malt, some syrup. Not great condition. It’s an ok strong ale, not huge flavours. Fine. Nice enough blend of malt and hop. Hop has some crystallised fruit. Drinkable without being flashy.

Cask handpull at Pembury Tavern, London. Very deep ruby with lasting thin dark beige head. Roasted choc aroma in stunning. Good choc in mouth, very light hop. Some bitter dark choc. More charcoal in mouth. I expected a bit more depth and mouthfeel. Good flavours. Bit acidic towards end. Tad of gum puckering. Most people really liked this.
