Cask at The Kings Arms, Ombersley. Light and fruity beer, surprising given dark colour. easy drinking. grass ending. 16/7/19 ------ Re-rated, same cask at same place. Just felt very bland this time, less smooth. 3.6 to 3.3

Barwa jasnobursztynowa, klarowne, piana biała, dość obfita, umiarkowanie trwała. W aromacie słodowe, lekko tostowe, tytoń. W smaku półwytrawne, nieco podbudowy biszkoptowo-tostowej, sporo nut chmielowych typu tytoń, zioła. Goryczka średnia, delikatnie do wysokiej, nieco zalega, wysycenie i ciało w normie. Dość konkretne i przyjemne.

Many thanks to simontomlinson for this bottle. Nice fresh malty beginning. Moderate bitter, round and malty with a very dry and slightly grainy aftertaste. Smooth, mild and dry bitter.
