Cask gravity at Rare Breeds BF 08. I admit that sometimes I take againse Welsh breweries for no good reason (except Otley and Evan Evans), but this has changed my perception. Gold with lasting beige head. Looks in good nick. Decent malt hop yeast balanced aroma. Hop and toffee in mouth. Very good nick. Surprisngly good flavours. Finish has some refreshing acidity. A very pleasant bitter

[i] [b] Bottle kindly picked up for me by friend Trev, cheers mate!, consumed 16-05-08 [/i] [/b] Good looking mid-amber beer with a small head. Good bitterness, malty, quite tangy but it’s the bitterness and dry finish that are the hallmarks of this very decent session beer

500ml bottle. Hops really play a background role. The malt sits on top showing caramel, chocolate and stewed apples. Moderate amount of bittlerness. Definetley a step up for a British bitter.

Cask at GBBF 2007. A copper colored beer with no head. The aroma is sweet malty with notes of caramel and a slight touch of hops, while the flavor is plainly sweet malty with notes of caramel.

Bottle. A bit unclear, copper-like pour, with a small, off-white head-like foam on top. The nose started a bit cardboard-like, with some caramel and malt. Mostly caramel in the flavor, but the cardboard-like thing is present here as well. Thin, quite watery body, and a pleasant hoppiness in the finish. It’s quaffable, but the cardboard thing ruins the experience a bit. (071005)

[i] Cask at The Three Fishes, Shrewsbury, Salop, 19-10-07 [/i] Poured light golden with a dusty aroma. A citrus rush initially leading to a fruity, juicy and refreshing beer that had a nice bitter and dry bite.
