Nov 3, 2009
Cask handpull at County Hotel, JDW, Ashford. Very deep ruby with very thin tan head. At least it only has a bit of diacetyl unlike the usual Cale beers. Some charcoal and some emptiness in the middle. Even a bit of smoke on aroma. Some bitterness on the finish, touch of dark plum. Fine, decent flavours, some decent fruit. Grew on me but if I had to drink a pint? Not sure. Good bitter finish though.

Nov 16, 2009 Handpulled cask at JDW Hatch End. Dense brown with a loose bubbly beige head. If I’d tried this in a blind tasting I’d have identified it as a mild! Sweet and buttery, so obviously from the Caley stable.

Nov 13, 2009 On draught at JDW The Prince of Wales, Cardiff. Dark brown with a creamy tan head. Fruity, hints of chocolate and apples, faily bitter. Surprisingly little oatmeal stout character, except for the colour.

Nov 9, 2009 Cask in the Market Porter. Alround rating: Diactyl bomb, roasty fairly sweet, but buttery beyond hope. Very poor.

Nov 7, 2009 Cask pint at JDW Newcastle. Pours dark, slightly viscous, drinks with a honey like sweetness, some whisky and malt flavours, finishes quite bizaarly, I can’t quite put my finger on what it is but it’s odd. Ok stout with an unusual but not unpleasant level of sweetness.

Nov 6, 2009 A Mes rate. Cask at Baker Street ’Sporks.
Mahogany black colour. Nice enough but no head. FULL of diacetyl. Lots of chocolate and vanilla but my god. Diacetyl bomb. Far from great.
