Een paar dagen London voor werk. Meteen in Brentford (Black Dog Beer House) wat halfjes gedronken. Vrijwel helder gouden body en een dun laagje wit schuim dat wel goede retentie heeft. Aroma is moutig, granig, fruitig en een beetje hop. Smaak is lucht zoetig en heel licht bitterig. Lichte body maar niet heel dun. Bitterheid neemt toe in de afdronk. Fijn om weer eens cask ale te drinken.

Cask at Pigs Ear Beer & Cider Festival 2025, Hackney. London. A dark ruby/brown coloured pour with a medium off white/beige head on top. Malty, caramel, dark fruit offering. Bitter/sweet and not overly complex, just about OK.

Can from Cobbett's, Dorking. Clear honey ey gold. Thin foamy translucent white head. Aroma had sweet doughy malts with a slightly bitter edge and floral notes Flavourwise itbhas a bitter citrus sour edged upper layer over sweet doughy malts. Peripheral spice. Woody. Light-medium bodied. Slick. Soft-fizzy carbonation. Long dry slightly astringent finish. Pleasent. I was.goo8ng to say refreshing but it's actually quite drying.

Can from Cobbett's, Dorking..Hazy-opaque pale gold. Thing foamy translucent white head. Aroma has a touch of.citrus sourness before really sweet fruit comes through. Underlying malta. Flavourwise it's got a tang of citrus alongside sweetbfrut, however it's also got those soda water edge throughout. Light. Watery. Carbonated soft drink fizz. Certainly refreshing but more like a flavoured sodaa ater.

Back in 1886 Grover Cleveland became the only US President to get married in the White House. Fast forward to US Independence Day today, this reimagining of an 1886 dark mild is not too dark, but a healthy chestnut colour with a creamy head. Pretty traditional sweet mild taste though.
