Batch #1, bottle #2. It pours clear golden with minimal head. The nose is doughy, grain, muffin, light toast and weak lemon. The taste is crisp, bready, hay, toasty grains, grass, drying mouth-feel, earth and dull astringency with a dry finish. Light-medium body and soft carbonation. A bit dull if truth be told. Not a whole lot going on.....meh.

Bottle (batch 1, bottle #13) from Good Taste, Crystal Palace. It pours hazy orange-amber with a medium off-white head. Some floaters on the go also. The nose is earthy, spicy, grass, wood, stewed orange and brown sugar. The taste is bitter, earthy, resin, spice, dull smoke, wood, leather, brown bread and toasty grass with a dry, spicy finish. Decent enough for an English-hopped IPA type job.

Cask at the Harp. It pours lightly hazy amber with a medium off-white head. The nose is earthy, toast, brown bread, berry and kinda cheesy hop. The taste is smooth, toasty, brown bread, earth, light peppery notes, leather and wood with a dry finish. Medium body and soft carbonation. Old leather sofa on the finish. Pretty old-school for my taste. So-so.

Gravity cask at London Drinker 2014. Pours clear gold with a frothy white head. Pretty basic aroma of hay and pale bread. Light sweet flavor with odd smoky mineral notes, grassy bitterness, more hay, dry pale malts. Light in body with fine carbonation; OK condition. Further out-of-place smoke and minerals to finish with a bit of lemon rind and dry pale bread. So so.
