hughie (3016), Bedford, Bedfordshire, England Oct 3, 2007 Gravity dispense at Bedford Beer Festival ’07. Hazy orange gold. Odd ashy aroma. Taste is sweet and fruity with a sort of smokey bacon background. Beguiling, smooth, amateurish. DJMonarch (6036), Northwich, Cheshire, England Mar 6, 2006 Cask Stillage at the Pot Of Beer, Manchester 17/07/2003
Golden coloured with a cloudy appearance. Slightly sharp on the palate. Tangy with a lasting finish. downender (2537), Bristol, Gloucestershire, England Jun 15, 2008 On gravity at the Bag O’Nails, Bristol 15/06/08. Cloudy pale yellow in colour with no head. Aroma of tart apples, cloves and yeast. Flavour started sweet before more spice and a dry finish. My understanding is that Thatchers produce this for Moles nowadays - the commercial description’s reference to Somerset would seem to support this. Nekronos (2243), Xalapa, Mexico Sep 29, 2006 Really nice, a little dry but sweet and strong, very cloudy, the name is a little nasty. duff (5474), Surrey, Greater London, England Oct 24, 2004 Cask@Bedford BF. Appleskin and blue cheese in the aroma. Sour-ish and finishes dry, quite fun in the end. Magicdave6 (5400), London, Greater London, England Jun 21, 2007 Noteably cloudy beast. Aroma was dry apples cooking appple and hints of nuts. Taste was again dry an appley, sweet nuts in the finish, a decent cider but there are better. Bullit (1300), Glasgow, Scotland May 13, 2009 Cask @ Bon Accord. Hazy yellow colour, lacings on top. Aroma of sour apple. Flavour is sour apple, yeast, some spices. yngwie (4880), Kristiansand, Norway Jul 25, 2006 Cask. (supposed to be only 4,8% ABV) Clear, lightly sparkling cider with a minimal white head. Mild aroma of apples and some sourness. The flavor is like green apples, with a touch of lemony sourness. Thin body and slightly astringent. Pleasant and refreshing. (060710)
