downender (1521), Bristol, Gloucestershire, England Mar 5, 2007 Cask conditioned at the Old Crown, Uley 23 Dec 2006. Beer served in what comes closest to the brewery tap. Presented in fine condition with a pronounced fruity aroma, with the primarily malty taste being complemented by decent hopping in the finish. Fin (2179), Merton, Oxfordshire, England Apr 13, 2006 Merton Beer Festival Sept 2004. Uley beers are one of my favourite’s I find they have quite a unique taste and they are almost always extremely good. Quite a fruity nose leads too a very good balanced beer with some lingering hops at the end. I really like this beer. I remember having a brewery trip with Worcester CAMRA there back in the early nineties we were left with a glass and the cellar shown the Old Spot, Uley Bitter and Pigor Mortis (sadly no more) as someone went looking for the brewer who was at home. We had about three hours merrily drinking on a glorious summers day and happily helped ourselves like we were instructed what a wonderful day, we were truly wellied by the time the brewer eventually turned up.

Golden amber coloured with a fruit aroma. Full hop finish. Mads Langtved (2246), København K, Denmark Jan 9, 2006 Cask conditioned, GBBF 2005:
Fruity nose. Malty and sweet flavour with a hint of apricot. Peppery finish. chris_o (4405), London, Greater London, England Jun 16, 2004 A pretty respectable standard bitter. Copper colour. More fruity and malty than bitter, but the hop bite appears at the end. Medium bodied and quite well balanced. Cask (gravity), Thurrock Beer Festival.
