Oakleaf I Cant Believe Its Not Bitter

Old Bottle: Bit excited. Amber big white head. Sweet, slightly honeyed aromas with a good fruitiness to them. Quite yeasty. Very nice bitterness and crisp cereal flavours. A little caramelly. Tingly carb, great hop character. I quite like it.

Cask at Wellington Arms, Bedford. Gold with a small white head. Sweet breadiness in aroma and taste with a bit of spicy biscuit and a mid bitter finish. ’Sort of like Carlsberg,’ I heard someone say. So no danger of anyone confusing this with bitter, as the name suggests.

From cask at Stockbridge Tap. Pours almost clear and golden yellow to orange with a small white head. Mild breadish to wheaty aroma. Flavour is mild acidic and wheaty with a ligt breadish note beneath. Smooth and fruity finish with a light citric bitterness coming through.

cask at ealing bf 08. smells of completely and utterly stale bubblegum. golden colour, thin white rim. very hoppy-ish, sweet, strange and odd. bland but drinkable.

Cask at GBBF 2008 ...light yellow ... bright hop ... dry hop .. little fruity ... little bitter ..

Cask at GBBF 2008. Pours a pure gold colour with a good grassy hop aroma. Plenty of fruit in the taste with a good hoppy finish.

Cask at Ealing beer fest. Aroma is pale quite sweet malts, with grassy hop. Taste is similar, i find it pritty bland and unexciting if quite drinkable.

Cask at GBBF 08. Golden yellow with great condition, this has a strong grapefruit and peach aroma. It’s almost too fruity - it has almost the intensity of a fruit vinegar. Very bitter and refreshing, this is a very good lager and extremely drinkable. To echo Mes’ comment, if only macro lager brewers made stuff as good as this.
