Cask at the Woodmans Rest, Solihull. Poured a slightly hazy medium amber with a frothy white head. The aroma is malt light grass hop. The flavour is medium bitter with a chewy malt, hop, light spice palate. Medium bodied with soft carbonation. A decent smooth chewy session ale.

Cask @ The Crown, Shrewsbury. Came in here for a game of pool and this was the cask offering. Grassy with thin malts. Remarkably watery and dull.

Nose is short; yeast, caramel, slight lactose. Taste is brown sugar, caramel, nut, leading to a too-sweet note (banana milkshake?) in the soft cream finish. Moutfeel is good. I can’t get past the really odd banana note in the finish, it’s very off putting.

Not a bad session bitter. Pours amber with pretty good head and lacing for cask. Light citrus that gives this mostly an acidic finish. OK barley presence. Cask at Max’s
