Cask at Euston Tap West Lodge. It pours deep dark brown with medium off-white head. The aroma is toasty, juicy, been bread, dried fruits, fruit cake, cacao, wood, pine and hop sack. The taste is dry, bitter, toasted nut, wood, leather, resin, pine, pithy citrus, brown bread, chewy malt and burnt fruit cake with a lingering drying mouth - feel. Medium body and soft, but we'll carbonated for a cask ale. Well rounded. A decent hoppy brown ale. Very drinkable.

Cask at Pigs Ear 2017, day 1 - Hackney, London. Pours clear brown with a mellow, tan foam head. The nose holds burnt toast, orange, brown bread. Light to medium sweet flavour, with light roast, some juicy citrus. Medium bodied with fine carbonation; OK condition. Finishes with dry chocolate, light ashy roast, citrus rind. Not bad.

500 ml bottle conditioned, as ELB Golden Ale, from Ales By Mail. ABV is 4.8%. Hazy golden colour, large to moderate white head. Aroma of fruity hops, also some unfresh notes of stale marmalade and grain, a hint of spices. The flavour is citric with a bitter and slightly woody finish, but not as fresh as desirable.

500 ml bottle conditioned, as Walthamstow Beer Green Hopped Pale Ale, brewed by the East London Brewing Company. ABV is 4.4%. From Ales By Mail. Golden colour, only slightly hazy. Moderate to small white head. Aroma of herbal and grassy hops. Light bodied. The flavour has a slight fruity acidity, a very slight sweetness, and herbal and earthy hops. Not bad, but no winner.
