Cask, The Highcross, Leicester. Dark amber brown with a small head. Aromas are light weetabix and chocolate malts. Flavours are very mooth chocolate malts with a light fruitiness. More like a brown mild. Peppery on the finish. Too light.

Jul 9, 2008 Handpulled at Crosse Keys, Monument, London, during recent International beer fest. Red/brown with off-white small head. Nice and malty in a lgerish way but I expect more body from a bock beer despite this one’s comparitively low strength. Not that impressed and bewildered that this was voted beer of the festival!

Apr 22, 2008 A Mes rate: Cask at Baker St ’Sporks.
Hazy amber with a thin off white head. Slightly metallic hop aroma with big fruity notes and rather a lot of sugar. Straight forward fruity malt flavour with a bit of a salty note. Very dull.

Apr 15, 2008 Cask, Hoylake Lights (JDW). Looked promising enough -reddish brown with lasting white head. Slightly sweet aroma with hint of caramel. Some maltiness in the flavour but a really insipid and watery feel to this. Really disappointing.
A chore to drink.
