Cask at Devils Taphouse, Stafford (not listed on RateBeer) Pours the classic “bitter brown” with a strong white head. A strange combination of cherries and nuts in the nose. Mouthfeel is mainly grains and malts but with some underlying bitter lemon and hints of berry fruits. Finish is dry and bitter. OK – but a bit weird !

Cask @ Tap and Can. Clear gold pour, fluffy white head. Pleasant blonde nose, cream-hints. Exceptionally fresh, light, easy-drinking blonde with a subtle gentle sweetness coursing throughout. Nicely rounded sessionable stuff.

Cask at Bird in Hand, Stafford (not listed on RateBeer) Pours a dark ruby red with a small cream head. Has a nice nutty aroma, which expands in the mouth. Taste centres on dark fruits, but gradually expands to encompass raspberries, parkin and ginger. Finish is fruity, bitter on the roof of the mouth, hoppy on the tongue. Unfortunately, I was served this beer much too cold, so everything is subject to caveat. But there seems to be a really nice beer trying to get out. Will have to rerate when I get a chance
