Cask at the Duke of St Albans, Highgate on 6th June 2025. Clear copper with shallow, yellowy white foam and full lacing. Leafy hops in aroma. Fruity and nutty in-mouth, nuttiness lasting into the finish where it dominates. Smooth mouthfeel and a fair bit of body.

Cask at Moon under Water, Wigan. Pours “bitter brown” with a small foamy off-white head and excellent lacing. Plenty of malts in the aroma, and also some nutty hints. In the mouth it is quite bitter with a creamy texture, but also a little underlying sweetness. Flavour has roasted malts, traditional hops and spices with hints of ginger coming through later. Bitterness lasts into the slightly dry finish. This is decent.

[Cask at the Back of Beyond (JDW), Reading.] A straw coloured pour with a ring of white head; citrus aroma; sharp lemony citrus taste with a bready body; and a light bitterness to finish. Unfortunately the lasting impression is that this is rather thin and unsatisfying.
