Ethereal (894), London, Greater London, England Dec 26, 2007 Cask at The Cat’s Back, Wandsworth, 12th Oct 2007. Clear amber with no head. Little aroma and a bland taste make this a poor quality ale. TheGrandMaster (1451), Auckland, New Zealand Feb 1, 2006 Pint pulled at The Railway in Putney (London), a clear golden amber with a thin head. A slight fruitiness in the aroma which interesting contrasts with the sweet caramal I pick up in the flavour. A little bit too dry though for my tastes. chris_o (4409), London, Greater London, England Jan 31, 2006 Cask (handpump) at the Willow Walk (JDW), Victoria. Attractive clear amber appearance with a small white head. There’s nothing to dislike about this beer, but not much to enthuse about wither. Not much aroma (cold as usual in a JDW). Dry malt is prevalent on the palate. Clean and easy drinking. The hops are not earthy English style, but I wouldn’t have spotted Cascade either. I can only conclude that more hops are needed.
Mungo (2474), Southampton, Hampshire, England Jan 23, 2006 Cask conditioned @ Giddy Bridge (JDW), Soton. Some vanilla and fruity hops. Fairly dry but with a touch of crystal sweetness and a bitter finish.
