Cask at the Crosse Keys, JDW, London. Pours clear, red-gold with a small, bubbly white head. Aroma holds some lightly sharp bready malts, dry clay and light leaves. Light sweet flavor with some toasted leaves, very mild dry caramel, faint toast. Light bodied with fine carbonation. Pretty bland to finish, with dry toast and wimpy leafy bitterness, some faint berries and wood. Pretty mediocre stuff here.

[Cask at the Back of Beyond (JDW), Reading] Amber, thin white head. A bit of caramel, a bit of vanilla, some mild, dusty straw. A little bitterness. Rather thin and bland. Very, very dull - a very standard bordering on sub-standard bitter.

Cask-conditioned at Great Western Hotel, Exeter 12/05/2012. Deep, ruddy amber in colour with a slight, off-white head. Light chocolate and toasted malt aroma. Flavour had some more chocolate, a touch of fruit and a soft, bitter finish. Ok.

Cask at GBBF. Slightly hazy brown beer. Very light malt and hops, too light, comes over as quite watery and wishy washy.
