Cask at the White Horse, Parson Green, 21st April 2004 with tashi. Bright copper with a honey and malt aroma. Caramel is the dominant flavour. Soft and smooth but nothing special.

Cask, Whey Pat Tavern, St Andrews. Golden light, thick sparklery white head. Nose is hoppy grassy bitterness. Mouth is watery malty, some initial bitterness and lasting biscuity sweet maltiness. Standard bitter, all in all.

The Cock Horse, Rowington. Apple juice, straw, citrus and crackerbread. Some heady fruit alcohol notes and solid hop bitterness. Lingering biscuit and amber haze.

Amber with a lasting white head. Bread and hay in the aroma. Sweet flavour with a hay note. Quite boring beer.
