Cask at The Star Inn Bath: Amber coloured, quickly vanishing froth; very shy hoppy nose, very light fruity taste, kind of bitter fruitiness in the end. Pretty bland.

Cask, The Peirson, St Helier, Jersey. Nutty brown in colour with a small head. Aromas are toffee, biscuit and lots of sulphur. Flavours are sweet toffee and caramel malts with sulphur, some salt and some hops spices. Simple, yet reliable.

Cask@The Windmill, somewhere in Berkshire. Looks a bit like in the photo to the left, except it doesn’t glow quite as much and the head dissapeared very quickly. Aroma was of grainy butterscitch and some earthy green hops, smelt a bit stale. Quite bland on the palate, dry, and stale. Grainy, with some citric hops. Slightly rusty.
