Cask gravity at White Cliffs BF 09. Chestnut colour, lasting bubbly head. Toffee caramel on aroma. Some earthiness on finish. It’s alright, some decent fruity malt. Toffee is pleasing. Just a bit bettern than average.

Bottle that I picked up from the Belvoir Brewpub, Old Dalby, Rutland/Leics 23-01-09 consumed 28-01-09 Pours amber with a sligh haze, like the Hopshackle before this is probably a chill haze as my utility room is very cool. Wonderfully hoppy and sweet citrus notes coming off of this, even a slightly rustic aroma. The sweet hoppy flavours leach around the mouth yum. This is wonderfully refreshing with a good bittersweet tanginess, lovely beer, finishes with a lingering bitterness and a splash of jiffy lemon. A7 A3 F8 P4 OV15 3.7

Cask handpump ’sample’ at the brewpub, Old Dalby, Leics/Rutland’ 23-01-09 and then in bottle 27-01-09 Pours very dark brown with an off white small bubbly head. The aroma is just a little weak but some malts and oat can be picked up. This was a little fruitier than I expected but very nice for it. There is a flourish of roasty flavours coming through and a dryness at the end A6 A4 F7 P4 OV14 3.5

Cask handpump at the brewpub, Old Dalby, Leics/Rutland’ 23-01-09 Pours mid amber with a large white cushion of foam, in great nick it must be said. Some lemon rind in the mouth, its a nice citric bite. The bitterness lingers across the roof of the mouth and the tongue. There is a good bite to this, some thrusty hop. Its a tidy and tasty bitter.

Foggy, red-brownish body under a frothy, beige cap. Fresh hop-floral aroma. Moderate hop resin in flavour alongside a sweety touch. Well balanced bitter finish. Worth repeating (500ml bottle from Centra, Colosseum, Oslo - at home 28.02.2008).
