Gravity cask from the Real Ale Classroom, Stoneygate, Leicester. Dark brown and slightly translucent with a large loose beige head. The head fades but the aroma does not: oak and cherrywood, bitter cooking chocolate, and farther away smells of tobacco leaves, coffee grounds and blackberries. Sweet malty taste at first, but this delicate flavour is challenged head-on by an earthy and uncompromising hop bitterness mid-sip. The long bitter finish and aftertaste is a bit too medicinal for me, otherwise this is a top, top beer.

Cask @ Fox & Goose, Hebden Bridge. Hazy golden-amber with a head. Has a very strong tasting hoppiness, this is true of its aroma too.

Handpull cask at the Two-Tailed Lion at Leicester. Murky cream/gold with some bubblings of white head. Fruity aroma, I'm getting apricot, pineapple, some lychee. Taste is bittersweet with the fruity hop in the foreground. I keep expecting a bitter punch in the finish which never comes. Watery body. Very nice, but there isn't quite as much to it as I'd have liked.
