Apr 1, 2009 Filtered/pasteurised bottle. Dead brilliant russet with a slim white lid. Buttered English apple, marzipan spread on cardboard aroma. Slick but watery with oak, apple yeastiness and marzipan notes. Finish bitter but hopless and nasty. Plenty of alcohol presence. A joyless, buttery, cardboard-accented beer I’m not going to finish.

Jan 7, 2009 <i>Cask Conditioned at J.D. Wetherspoon - The Masque Haunt, London</i>
Beautiful amber color; thin frothy head. Light aroma. It has a good caramel and malt flavor, quite round body, some residual sweetness, a feeling of maturity and alcohol warmth. Good.

Dec 28, 2008 From cask at Charlies. Pours clear and golden deep orange with a small white head. Fruity hops and mild roasted caramel malt aroma. Sweet ad rather fruity flavoured. Holds a decent caramel malt base. Leads into a mild acidic/citric bitterness with a mild spice hoppy note alongside. Rather biter finish with a light phenolic touch. Quite fruity lasting far finish.
