Together with the surrounding nature and views towards Salcombe, it’s a great place for local and visiting customers to enjoy.

[Cask at The Back of Beyond (JDW), Reading.] An amber pour with a slight haze and a creamy white head; fruity Belgian yeast aroma with; smooth grainy body with a banana taste; then a lightly bitter finish with a touch of spice in the throat. A nice Belgian ale.

I spent a week of my life in Salcombe some years ago but didn't find this one there. A lower-strength than, but full Belgian style flavoured cask. Bubble-gum notes that linger in taste, slightly less stated in aroma.

Cask at the moon under water Watford Jdw. A clear orange amber coloured pour with a fine white head. Aroma is spicy orange, phenols, clove, grass, earthy grains. Flavour is composed of semi sweet, green liquorice, spicy, chamomile, numbing, light white peppercorns.. Palate is semi sweet, semi crisp, light delicate cask condition. Drinks pretty good.

Bottle on 6th December 2025, received as gift. Pours slightly hazy, active copper with shallow, diminishing yellowy white foam and spot lacing. Malty aroma. Sweet berries, leafy hops and maltiness in-mouth with notes of smoke. Fruity finish. Medium bodied with an engaging mouthfeel.

Cask at the Falcon (JDW), Wycombe. Amber with an off white head. Up front this is definitely Belgian in character; banana-ey yeast, a hint of honey roast ham, and a white bread and banana cake body. The finish is more British - a twiggy, earthy bitterness. Nice to have something a little bit different on cask.

Bottle on 9th November 2025, received as gift. Slightly hazy gold with shallowing off-white foam and scant lacing. Grassy hoppiness in aroma. Grassy and leafy hops in-mouth with rounded malts- a blend that goes on to dominate the finish. Full bodied with a zingy mouthfeel.
