Draught@The Rake. Golden colour, small white head. Aroma is diacetyl, wood, fruits, grass and some mild toffeeish notes. Flavour is fruits, diacetyl, bready malts, sweet malts as well as some mild pleasant herbal notes. Not sure if it’s intended to be this diacetylic, but it was still very pleasant.

Cask, gravity at Chadlington Beer Festival, Chadlington Village Hall, Oxon, 05-06-10 Cloudy straw colour. Its lemony and fruity, with apple showing. Refreshing and fine and I can see this being quite a hit with many as it seems ok but I just got the impression that this was very commercial, in fact much like the beers that Cotswold do it was very clinical that’s certainly not a bad thing in terms of consistency but its just seemed a bit mass produced to me, I was really surprised when I saw the website and the write up as I was convinced that this was going to be an alias of a big firms cider.

Keg at the Jolly Anglers, Reading. Pours an attractive, natural looking, cloudy pale straw with a voluminous dense white head; the texture is creamy, light and refreshing with flavours of wheat and coriander; the finish is clean and fresh with just a hint of banana. An excellent, light, clean, refreshing, modern, example of the style.

Bottle that was passed on rather generously by a resident of Foscot, Oxon and consumed 14-03-10 Pours dark reddy brown, great clarity. Not getting the Cascade hops on the nose but their is a touch of burnt toffee. Taste is simple but fine, some toffee flavour’s pulse through a lengthy but quite restrained bitterness, touch of the boiled sweets about this, would probably be really quite decent on draught but in bottle struggle to display itself quite as it should. Its ok. A6 A4 F5 P3 Ov11 2.9
