Jun 17, 2007 agree with some of the tasting notes here, but not the scores. another one that i tried in leicester, strong on hops, spicy, citric notes but the finish is decidedly bland.

Mar 16, 2007 Cask@Pigs ear BF 06. A nice hoppy one. Lots of grapefruit and lychee flavours coming through. Finish is dry and bitter, and lasts. This beer is all about the hops, lots of juicy, fruity hop flavours. Like it a lot.

Feb 21, 2007 Cask (handpull) Flowerpot, Derby. Lovely stuff, stacks of Oakham-ness to it, fat citrics, strong hops. A seam of spices in there too. Enough ABV to carry it off. Sumptuous.

Feb 11, 2007 Cask (gravity dispense), Pigs Ear Beer Festival, London, December 2006. Golden colour, tending towards amber. Flowery aroma with a light, biscuity malt accent. Fruity on the palate with lashings of tangy hops. Orange and grapefruit to the fore. Perhaps not quite as intense on the palate as on the nose. Sharp, clean and crisp mouthfeel, but juicy too. Lasting, hoppy finish with lingering resinous bitterness and zingy otange zest. Has all the Oakham trademarks, and exceptionally well executed.

Dec 13, 2006 Cask gravity at Pig’s Ear. Amber colour with thin off white head. Nice American hop aroma, grapefruit. Bit of Turkish Delight fruit. I love it, but then again, I would as I love this brewery. Great tangy grapefruit hop finish. Best cask beer of the day for me and it was my first.
