leaparsons (4001), Leicester, Leicestershire, England Sep 29, 2008 Cask, Hinckley Fest 08. Amber brown with minimal head. Aromas are sweet toffee and caramel malts with earthy, spicy hops. Dry and woody with citrus. Flavours are toffee malts with dry tea. Some citrus. Soft on the palate with a dry finish. DruncanVeasey (1736), No. 46, Leicestershire, Germany Sep 20, 2008 Cask, Hinckley 08. As the IPA Im afraid- marzipan, caramel, tired watery hops. Bit of an empty pasteurised feel to it. Drinkable, but sweet and dull. RichardGretton (2681), Leicestershire, England Sep 14, 2008 Cask@1st Hinckley Beer Festival, 2008.
