A terrible pun. I can bearlee believe it (or should that be bearlieve it)... keg draught at Tønne, Leicester
Dark brown, ot very translucent with a small khaki/tan head. Aroma of caramel, char, treacle. A little bit of saccharin in the sweet taste. Light bittering hops nearer the finish which seem contraindicative of the burnt notes making it a little bit plastic. Light body, heavy carbonation. Reasonable.

Keg draught at Tønne, Leicester. Light to kid-yellow gold. Hazy with a full white head. Light aroma, some pineapple, guava, vanilla. Taste... oh my. Lots of guava, lime leaf, pineapple, passionfruit. Tart but far from spur. Short finish is. Good full body with medium carbonation. Nice sour, lots of character.

Keg draught at Tønne, Leicester. Darker than pink, hazy with a tonsure of pinkish white head. Creamy aroma, getting a good hit of strawberry, astronaut ice cream vanilla. Slightly less on the chocolate. Nice sweet balance, very little sourness but a little 'tang' in the middle of the sip. Really makes it work. Body has some weight to it, carbonation takes a back seat. Very good.

Cask at the Corn Exchange (JDW), Leicester. Mid-brown and a little translucent with a scummy off-white head. Aroma of dark malts, some fruits. Sweet taste, a little bit of fruity sourness. Flat, watery body. Not great.

Keg sraught at the Swan, Mountsorrel. Very pale yellow gold, hazy with a small white head. Aroma of lime peel, grain, grassy/herbal character. Sweet taste, a little citrus peel, a very little bitterness of the finish. Pleasant but not really significant. Light body, medium carbonation. All in all good.

Keg draught at Wilfred Pinsent and Grandson, Mountsorrel. Very light gold, hazy, a thin white head with good lacing. Berries, citrus, stone fruit all compete with a strong herbal character in the aroma. Taste is sweet, more berries with a good malt backbone, a little musty. Light bitterness at the finish. Light body with light to medium carbonation. Decent but not Polly's best work.

12 ounce can bought from Beers of America as part of a delivery and drunk at home. Colour is bronzed, almost brownish gold, clear (this is a hazy?) with a thin spotty layer of off-white head. Dank aroma is fairly muted surprisingly. Taste is super sweet and super boozy, big orange caramel, vanilla, tropical fruit. Serious bitterness on the finish. Medium oily body, with reasonable carbonation.
