Aug 26, 2006 Cask at the Half Moon, Oxford. This was the only option while England was taking it to Sweden in the World Cup. Seems like this is a bitter made to resemble a belgian brew, as it’s got a bit of spicy, herbal hop flavor to it along with a good deal of yeast presence. There’s something incredibly sour in it, though, that made it nearly undrinkable for me. Glad I held back for only a half-pint.

Aug 9, 2006 Updated: Apr 6, 2007A Sim Rate (Cask at The Gatehouse) Smells like algae, sweet and creamy. Tastes like peanuts. Redcurrant aftertaste. Quite sweet for an ale.

Jul 27, 2006 Handpump @ the legendary George Inn, Southwark.
Sparkling copper body with a very short-lived white head that managed a little legs. Biscuity sweet nose. In the mouth it’s very similar with toffee, salted nuts and toasted malt predominant over a light earthy hop note that sits in the very recess of the mouth. Dries out in the back end with a very gentle bitter apex before all malt in the swallow and a light residual sweetness that lingers long afterwards. Completely still, light bodied but relatively smooth, it could get quite heavy after a few pints so I’d say one was enough. Not bad at all.

May 19, 2006 Richly bodied reddish bitter. Like treacle on top of a Ridleys. Fruity hoppiness (strawberry?)and yeasty nose balanced with a mildly bitter finish. Creamy texture. A refreshing and highly drinkable pint.
