harrisoni (5121), Ashford, Kent, England Mar 25, 2008 Gravity cask condition, The Chambers, Folkestone. Copper colour with lasting beige head. Soft bitter. Slightly creamy. Bit of farty yeast. As I say, soft in mouth. Some hop. It’s fine, good defined flavours, just not hugely exciting. chris_o (4405), London, Greater London, England Apr 18, 2008 Cask (handpump), Wetherspoons Piccadilly, Manchester. Amber/orange colour. Slightly estery fruity aroma. Nice balance of sweetish fruity malt and citric hop. Very clean mouthfeel. Smooth aftertaste with just a hint of sharp bitterness.
maeib (3949), Wootton, Northampton, Northamptonshire, England Mar 23, 2008 Cask conditioned - handpump - Wig & Pen, Northampton. A golden orange coloured beer with a white head. At first the aroma and taste are thin and quite boring, with just a hint of hop, but then late on a marmalade like note comes through and actually gives a pretty decent flavour. Intriguing and nice enough. leaparsons (3899), Leicester, Leicestershire, England Apr 27, 2008 Cask, Golden, dull with an off-white head. Aromas are tea with hints of nuttiness. Green hops with spices. Flavours are woody and dry with tea. Hints of sulphur. Has a bitter finish. Magic_dave6 (3665), London, Greater London, England Apr 4, 2008 Cask in the counting house. Aroma is minimal, malty and peppery notes come through. Taste is similar, balanced and richer than expected. Tasty though.
