DJMonarch (4091), Northwich, Cheshire, England Mar 1, 2006 Cask Stillage at the Memorial Hall, Northwich 17/09/2005
Amber golden coloured with some citrus and hop aromas. Bitter crisp malt finish. duff (5404), Sydney, Australia, Surrey, England Oct 7, 2005 Cask@St Albans Beer Festival. Cereally malt nose. Some slight undeveloped crackery malt flavours. Hops are leafy/earthy. The flavour is quite green. Sweetish at times. chris_o (4405), London, Greater London, England Oct 3, 2005 Cask (gravity dispense), St Albans Beer Festival 2005. Attractive bronze colour. Biscuity malt aroma. Some dusty hops and a touch of citrus in the flavour. A fairly traditional best bitter tending towards an Autumnal style but it doesn’t really pack much of a punch. Solid but unspectacular.
SilkTork (3864), Rochester, Kent, England Oct 3, 2005 St Albans. Gravity. Slightly rough edge gives some earthy character to an otherwise quite ordinary bitter. But what can you do? You drink ’em, you mark ’em, you move on... harrisoni (5121), Ashford, Kent, England Oct 3, 2005 Cask (gravity dispense), St Albans Beer Festival 2005. Orange copper colour, bubbly off white head, sherberty/grapefruit hop aroma, possible US hop influence. Good in mouth with hop/grapefruit finish. Yes, good 1st pint of the festival. Here with Chris_O, Maeib, Kook, SilkTork and Duff
