Bottle from Tebay Services on the M6. Amber beer with a white head. The label says strong with a tangy finish. Didn’t get either of those. Just a run of the mill bitter.

500ml bottle: BBE 08/2015. Poured into a UK pint sleeve at home during 03/2015. Pale amber/golden body with a thin white topping. Nose and taste both leaning towards a caramel/toffee flavour, the hops arriving later in the taste to give a mild bitter finish. Decent enough blend, but lacked a real bite or depth of flavour.

Keg at the Blacksmiths Arms, Broughton Mills. Straw yellow. Lemon, wood and grain dominate the light aroma. Bittersweet with a bit of citrussy sour. Fresh slightly bitter aftertaste. Carbonation is refreshing, especially after a day of walking. Ok.

Bottle from Booths, Media City. Straw coloured lager styled ale, no head. Has a decent enough pilsner malt aroma and taste but with no carbonation so it’s a noticeably different texture to the mainland Europe style of pils.

Cask at the Wellington Arms. Orangeish brown with a decent show of white head. Scent of toast, roasted veg with a bit of vinegar. Odd. A straightforward bittersweet taste, turning a bit more bitter toward the finish. Refreshing but ordinary, and I’m not convinced it’s quite at its best. Still, it is perfectly drinkable.

Cask gravity at the Watford beer festival 2014. Mid amber coloured pour with a loose off white head. Aroma is toffee apple, caramel, tangy. Flavour is caramel toasted grains with tangy toffee apple and touch of acid. Palate is quite sweet semi viscous with some moderate carbonation. OK, bit too much much sugar.
