Cask at PoW, Farnborough. Nil aroma. Light chestnut. Thin bubbly translucent white head. Light bitter with a malty undertow. Is there some spice? Maybe. Light bodied but has some buoyancy thanks to soft carbonation. Abrupt finish. Just really so boring. How's it relate to rugby? (Well, it could be the boring bit).

A cheeky pint of cask at the Crutched Friar. A deep dark brown in the glass and a reasonable head for a cask beer. The taste was all about the rich malt with some balancing bittering hops. It slipped down a treat with a smooth malty mouthfeel and reminded me of my youth when I used to drink gallons of this growing up in Wiltshire. It's a true English session bitter that is totally on style. It was also kept very well by the pub as this stuff tends to be terrible at travelling.

Il gusto al naso va sull'orzo. L'intensità olfattiva è normale e la continuità olfattiva è corta. Il cappello di schiuma ha una discreta resistenza. La grandezza delle bollicine è media. Il liquido è di aspetto cristallino. Il perlage è composto da poche bollicine medie. Il colore è giallo ambrato. Il corpo è rotondo. L'amaro è deciso. L'intensità gustativa è normale. La costanza gustativa è sufficiente. Il gusto è piacevole. Le sensazioni boccali finali sono di pronta beva. Il retrogusto è di media intensità. Al palato riporta impressioni di caramello, miele, cereali, frutta secca, resina, pino.

Keg at the brewery. Gold with a white head and a middling fizz. Decent fresh leafy hops and white pepper up front with a touch of lemon. Some hop resins in the mouthfeel. Dies a little in the finish leaving a dusty, mildly dry aftertaste. Waddy's have definitely and unexpectedly produced an IPA, but it's not the best example of the genre. Pleasant enough though.

Cask at the brewery. Dark brown with a cream-coloured head. Chocolate liqueur and a little Kahlua up front. Thought at first that the chocolate was maybe a bit fake and that it was going to be too sweet. Then a little roasty malt started to kick in and it all balanced out. A pretty decent pint by the finish, and dangerously drinkable for the strength.

Cask at PoW, Farnborough. Floral and spice aroma. Light chestnut. Thin white soap sud head. Another seasonal beer with a mix of spices that just doesn't appeal to me. Down as a bitter but the spices are what come through. Light-medium bodied. On the thin side. Flat carbonation. The spices don't pep it up for me, just give it a soapy flavour.
