Quite thin. And unexciting.

It’s fine but not at all exciting.

[Cask at the Catherine Wheel (JDW), Henley.] An amber pour with a scant cream coloured covering; biscuity malt aroma; dry with a malty body and a sharp herbal bitterness that’s unpleasantly overpowering. Full of hops, but not to my taste.

First brewver rate up the White Lady I think! Pours clear dark brown with a thin bubbly beige head. Aromas of liquorice, charcoal and blackcurrant. Taste is more of the same. Roasty finish. Decent.

[Cask at the Hope Tap (JDW), Reading.] A deep mahogany coloured pour with a close beige head; aroma of roasted malts; silky smooth in the mouth with sweet grains, some raisins and cocoa powder; and a sweet fruity chocolate finish with a lasting bitterness. Very pleasant.

Cask at The Briar Rose, Birmingham. Clear gold with smooth looking white head. Nice orange, apricot and pineapple fruity character with light biscuit malts and hint of a floral and leafy hop. Moderate sweetness and bitterness and nice balance. Smooth mouthfeel. Likable cask APA.
