Cask (stillage) at Oakdale Arms Beer Festival, April 2006. Another pale bitter. Bit of a sulphur snatch in the aroma but not unpleasant. Dry mouthfeel with some bitterness. Reasonably fresh and clean but not a lot to it really. Nothing to really like or dislike.

Cask conditioned at The Waggon & Horses, Dudley, W.Midlands. Amber colour with slight head. Dull lifeless bitter with a perfumed character, thin and watery, uninteresting malt body. Disapointing.

Cask@The Oakdale Arms, North London. Another one of these dull Burton Bridge bitters. watery mouthfeel, grainy mouthfeel, some citric hops, quite void of any interesting flavour though.
