Cask at the Plough, Wolvercote, Oxon 25-04-06. Amber coloured, very small head which quickly disappeared quite sweet, little fruity and reasonably tasty. I had a couple of these and was pleasantly suprised as it was better than I expected and than I last remebered.

Bottled. Dark golden beer with a small, almost beige head. Malty aroma with a ligth grapefruit-like fruitiness. Medium body and a flavor that is mostly malty, but it also has some caramel, lightly roasted notes and some hops. Medium body and a bready and bitter finish, where the bitterness lasts the longest.

500ml in a Ruddles Ales glass at Blå Rock Cafe in Tromsø. Served a bit too cold. Clear and deep mahogany. Virtually no foam. The delicious hoppy aroma sets the standard for the beer. It’s a distinctive hoppy bitterness all the way through with a long and gentle hoppy finish.

Casked. Copper/ruby coloured, small beige head. Aroma is sweet caramellish malts and fruits. Flavour is sugary and fruity. Very smooth palate and flavour. Some weak wooden hints also there. Fresh cask! I actually like the bottled version better than the cask.

Cask@Old Bank, Turku
Dark amber color, small off-white head. Sweet floral hoppy aroma. Quite bitter flowery hoppy flavor. Trefoil and some sweetness in the aftertaste. Tastier than a bottled version, lucky to have fresh cask.

Amber colour with white fast disappearing head. Aroma of sweet apples. Some hops notes to in the aroma. Flavor is apple and hops. A refreshing beer. But i think it would be better one by one.
