Bottle from the Blue Glass, Bedford. Drunk at home. Tawny brown, hazy, with a generous loose-ish off-white head. Toffee apple, crystal malt and a touch of cardboard. Tastes pretty good - some light bittersweet malt - but by no means extraordinary. The hintiest hint of astringency on the finish. Well-carbonated body, I can’t imagine this would work as well on cask. Like many of White Park beers, it’s competent and solid but doesn’t excite.

Cask at the Falcon, High Wycombe, 05/12/15. Clear golden with a decent light beige covering. Nose is bready malt, straw, grain, light citric. Taste comprises bread dough, biscuit, straw, faint orange. Medium bodied, soft carbonation, semi drying close with light bitterness. Ok ... doesn’t set my beer world alight but nothing wrong with this one.

Bottle from the Blue Glass, Bedford. Mid-brown, looks a bit thin. Reasonable carbonation. Very little head. Malt, cereal and hazelnut aroma. A lot more bitter than I expected, slightly astringent. Some of the nuttiness of the malt comes out in the finish. Despite the thinnish body, it’s got a nice texture. Verdict: a decent enough beer when all is said and done. A bit different from similar malty ESBs.
