Ethereal (927), London, Greater London, England Sep 9, 2008 Cask at the Bricklayers Arms, 6th September 2008. Amber with a white head. Aroma has hops, a bit of honey, a little malty toffee and some fruitiness. Strong hoppy flavour and a standard palate. FatPhil (2367), Espoo, Finland Nov 13, 2007 Cask(Peterborough Beer Festival 2004)
This is more of a strong ale or an old ale than a simple bitter. Strong malty aroma - rye-bread and some subtle spice. Full bodied in the mouth, but on the sweet side and could get cloying. Finn (1092), Tromsø, Norway Oct 9, 2006 Cask at The Market Porter London SE1 15 Sep 06. Golden coloured. A small head. Sweet fruity flavour. Some bitterness little by little. DJMonarch (4091), Northwich, Cheshire, England Feb 2, 2006 1. Cask Stillage at the Memorial Hall, Northwich 20/09/2003
Golden colour slightly hazy in appearance. Some sour fruit and a lasting malt hop finish.
2. Cask Stillage at the RAOB Club, Northwich 18/10/2003
Golden colour slightly sour fruit flavour. Some dryness in a full malt finish. SilkTork (3942), Rochester, Kent, England Mar 2, 2005
Oct, 2004: JDW, Rochester. Malty with a rye bread flavour and poppy seeds and some aniseed. Gentle brown sugar sweetness. Some interest here, but I can’t quite get past the thick crude undeveloped malt. [2.8]
