Aug 27, 2002 Bottled version. Deep amber. The low carbonation gives a pleasant, soft mouthfeel. Malty and dry, but also slightly papery. Medium bitterness.

Mar 23, 2002 Light, very ironish tasting; limited character otherwise. Interestingly, I had this in a bottle, which doesn’t seem like much of a cask to me.

Aug 31, 2003 Slight hoparoma. Sweetish flavor with honey and apple. Honeyish with a slightly bitter aftertaste. Not too bad.

Oct 14, 2002 Thin, sweetish start, buttery/oily texture, bit of toffee maltyiness and slight resiny hops, pretty horrible (i had the bottle version i case you were interested).

Nov 20, 2004 Cask, or is it keg? Soapy brown appearance with nitro head. Death by freezing beer, sharp harsh and confused. The hops can herdly get going. Is this really Theakston or the work of the Ampersand group?

Jun 10, 2004 I really don’t see the point of this. Take a cask ale and serve it chilled to within an inch of its life (it certainly seemed colder than the 10C claimed) and through a sparkler so tight that it comes over almost identical to the nitrokeg that it is presumably aimed at weaning fizzheads off. Why bother? It’s methadone for keg junkies. Not blatantly offensive though. It would probably be marginally better without the sparkler. "Cask" (handpump), The Bull and Chain, Lincoln
