Cask at Peter Kavanagh’s Liverpool. Pours clear gold with a thick white head. Aromas of peach melba, light malt sweetness. Taste is more peach fruit, very peachy. Finishes light sweet. Good.

Cask: half-pint at The Cottage Loaf, Llandudno on 11th June 2014. The beer poured slightly hazy pale gold with a full white crown that gave off lacing. Fairly light flavoured with a mini malt lead in both the aroma and taste. Semi-sweet with so hop background noise, but I could call it subtle or bland: I’ll be kind and say it has subtle notes that produce a refreshing summer brew ideal for a sunny day.

Cask, hand-pulled half pint on the sun terrace of Cottage Loaf, Llandudno on 11th June 2014, one of two tatton beers on offer. No haze to my Lazy half, pale gold body with a full white crown that gave lacing. Hints of honey and tea (the pumpclip mentioned tea) in both the aroma and taste. Refreshing enough but not really ’my cup of tea’: didn’t stop me having a half of their Blonde though.

Bottle from Booths, Media City. Dark but clear with a thin head. Has a sweetness married with a light smooth roasted malt flavour. Nice mid-roasted nose and medium bodied.

Bottle from Booths, Media City. Pale yellow with a thin head. Has both a malty and hoppy character and both are evident in the palate. Light textured but a healthy one that proves to be very tasty.

Cask at The Grapes - Liverpool. Pours rich, clear amber-brown with a tight, creamy cappucino head. Great aroma with notes of fruitcake, faint cocoa, rich bread, dark berries. Medium sweet flavor with rich, ripe and gooey fruit character, some plums and figs, sugary toffee, dark bread. Medium bodied with fine carbonation; great condition. Sticky sweet finish with toasted sugars, demerara, more fruitcake, candied dark fruits, ripe berries. Nicely balanced overall with restrained, layered complexity.

Bottle. I hope I have had a bad one.... Nose is of copper and musty wardrobes. Colour is a weak yellow, slightly cloudy no head. Taste is appalling, a slight hint of marzipan, and a touch of pepper, the finish is chlorine and water (have I just drank a swimming pool?!). It tasted more like a commercial pilsner than a wheat beer. Mouthfeel is water. Overall: I love wheat beer, especially Belgians. This tastes like no other wheat beer, I’ve ever tried, the brewer seems to have tried to make a wheaty larger, and has made a mess. Utterly dreadful on every level, comfortably the worst wheat beer, I have ever had and one of the worse beers. Ended up down the sink.

Bottle. Nose is very sweet, notes of milky coffee, vanilla and fudge. Taste is sweet, with suprisingly pronounced hops. Taste is of ash, slight pepper, some molassus, dark fruits, leading to an IPA like finish with with medicine. Slightly too carbonated. A nice beer, but the nose and palate, don’t seem to relate to one another that well leaving a disjointed experience.
