Jan 10, 2008 Cask@The Red Lion, Barnes. Decent enough. Sweetish toffee notes, but stil with some earthy dryness about it. Not really complex or anything, just a fairly straight forward, toffee and slight dark fruit sweetness, not very exciting, but drinkable.

Jan 27, 2007 The Partridge, Bromley. A darkly sweet fruit and nut extravaganza. Soft and creamy with buttery notes and a lip-smacking old fashioned English hop burn - deep, earthy and spicy. A great flavour journey from sweet to dusty. Gorgeous beer. Stunning.

Jan 24, 2008 Cask (Woolpack, Vantaa)
Rich ruby, small head. Complex aroma - dates, pipe tobacco, woody too. Tempted to say I can even recognise the aroma of the London water that’s so distinctively Fullers’. Very soft in the mouth. Huge woody nutty taste - leaves a long finish. Dry, but not drying. Excellent dark ale. They could afford to increase the horse-power a bit (high 5s-low 6s) with such a glorious taste and make it a real winter warmer.

Apr 26, 2008 (Cask at Gallows Bird on 2008-01-26) A red-brownish colour. Medium head. Roasted malts in taste. Nothing special.
