Cask (Gallows Bird, Espoo)
Sweet, slightly gingery bitter aroma. Soft malty body, some bitter, gentle hopping. Very easy quaffer. Pleasant bitter finish. Just what you want from a 3.7% bitter - excellent sessioner.

<i>Cask Conditioned at The Castle, Furnival St., London</i>
Hazy golden color; thin creamy head. Nice grassy hop aroma. Despite the low alcohol, it has a correct mouthfeel, with caramel and cereals flavor; strong bitterness. Good.

Bottle, 4.1% Dead bronze pour like squash. Nosing digs up a surprising tang of hop, rusty mandarin tin, lime sharpness, sticky resins. Dead, but not in a bad way. Pleasant orangey tang softening into lingering bready vanilla malts, peanut. Really creamy monkey nut afters. Little bit earthy. Quite enjoyed it.

Has the fruitiness of the Wayland Smithy, but a lot more hops and malt. I quite liked this.

(Cask at Market Porter, Southwark, London, 27 April 2008) Clear amber colour with frothy, off-white head. Fruity nose with notes of orange, apricots and floral hops. Malty, fruity taste with apricots, dog-rose cream and floral hops. Fairly dry, slightly below medium body. Tasty session bitter.

A Mes rate: Cask at the St. Aldates Tavern, Oxford during the RB pub crawl.
Nice and clean golden brown colour with a thin bubbly white head. Decent hops front aroma with delicate hints of ginger. Flavour has a really good malt and hop balance that goes all the way to the finish eventually settling on bitter hops. Lots of character, plenty of flavour. Good stuff.
