Gravity dispense at the Miners’ Arms Summer Beer Festival, St Werburgh’s Bristol 6/8/07. A non-descript bitter. Copper coloured with a minimal head. Some hops on the aroma followed by a slightly malty flavour and a bitter finish. Ok.

Cask handpull at The Mermaid, St Albans. Gold, disappearing white head. Some citrus hop, bit muddy and confused. Great hop citrus on finish.

Bottled at Monk’s Café, Stockholm. Clear ruby, brief head. Aroma of cherries. Sweet and fizzy with medium body and clean crystal malt profile. Has the malt character of un unambitious American brewpub chain’s amber ale, but they usually cover it up by using aromatic hops. Here that is missing too. Finishes slightly metallic. A disappointment.

Bottled at Monk’s Café, Stockholm. Clear golden, average head. Aroma of vanilla and grass. Notes of peach. Medium sweet and medium bodied with clean mouthfeel. Fairly low bitterness. A straightforward lager like ale that fails to catch my interest.

A golden coloured ale, with a grapefruit nose, and a sweet floral hoppy flavour leading to low level malt.

Cask gravity at Reading BF 06. Gold colour with bubbly off white head. Hop and toffee aroma. Sweetish in mouth. Bit nothingy on the finish. Bit of smoke maybe on the end. Bit of apple and overall just a bit odd 2.8/3 Re-rate Cask gravity at Bricklayers Arms 2nd Annual Yorkshire BF 08. Some citrus orange on aroma. It’s a drinkable golden beer. Good condition.

Cask gravity dispense at Red Lion, Isleworth. Beer of the Beagle II Mars lander apparently. Chestnut colour with no head. Malty beer, but with good hop finish. A bit like Theakson XB used to be. Some dry malt on aroma, bit of coffee, but then flavours fade

A slightly hazy red beer with a thin beige head. The aroma is sweet with light notes of berries and caramel. The flavor is sweet with strong notes of berries - especially cowberries, but also hints of acidity and wood, leading to a dry end.
