Stillage at The Golden Retriever, Wokingham as part of their summer beer festival. Not an entirely fair rating, perhaps as the stillage had not been kept at a good temperature. Cloudy and with an off smell. Got the impression this was an avarege beer made poor.

Cask @ Piccadilly Tavern in Manchester. Golden with a small full head. Has a small dry combined hoppy and tropical fruit taste but a fairly light and weak texture.

Copper brown without a head. It has an acutely hopped aroma, giving it an almost spirit like smell. Not high on flavour but a slightly seasonally winter texture.

Cask at The Bear (JDW), Maidenhead. Bright reddish amber with a loose white head; malty aroma with some red fruit; soft and malty in the mouth with some sour cherries; lightly bitter leaving a biscuity finish. Rather satisfying.
