Fin (2179), Merton, Oxfordshire, England Feb 20, 2008 Cask Far from the Madding Crowd Jan’ 08 Loz’s bosses leaving do Amber with white head sweetish aroma but some fruit. Tasted quite decent, nothing out of the ordinary, fruity, caramel, ok. harrisoni (5121), Ashford, Kent, England Feb 20, 2008 Cask handpull at The Unicorn, Canterbury. Amber colour with thin head. Acidic session bitter. Crisp earthy hop with a tingly finish. Some malt and fruit in mouth. Toffeeish aroma, but really acidic on finish. Doppelganger (1114), Oxford, Oxfordshire, England Jan 26, 2008 Cask, Far From the Madding Crowd, Oxford. Warm copper, dense clean white head. Bright fruit esters (banana and strawberries) and a soft candy touch. Very fruity flavor--heavy banana/berry like what you might expect in a breakfast smoothie, then a light caramel touch. So very ester forward. Interesting.
