Cask at Borough Arms, Crewe. Pours a dark reddish-brown with minimal off-white head and good lacing. The aroma is mainly roasted malts with hints of chocolate. Roast malts again in the mouth alongside aniseed and liquorice with traces of herbs and spices. Later on chocolate comes through quite strongly plus hints of cola. Finish is quite bitter. This is a decent stout.

Handpull cask at the Salmon, Leicester. Light to mid-gold and clear with a small white head. Aroma is a bit odd, like those slightly sour chalk candy. Taste is bittersweet, a little herbal with a brief off vegetal note. Very bitter finish. A massive mixed bag, I enjoyed well enough but would hesitate to get a second.

Handpull cask at the Kings Head, Leicester. Light to mid-gold and clear with a thin off-white head. Pink grapefruit sitting juicily in the aroma, a little bit of hay and hints of buttered toast. Sprightly bitterness in the taste, with bitter hop filling the mouth. Oily body with soft carbonation. Certainly a cut above your average golden.
