White Horse Scourers Brew

Brewed by White Horse
Style: Golden Ale/Blond Ale
Stanford-in-the-Vale, Faringdon, England

[Cask at the Back of Beyond] Murky gold with a slight white head. Farmyard/straw aroma. Tastes harshly bitter at first, but this mellows to reveal a farmyard/straw taste with grapefruit bitterness coming through at the end. It’s OK, but I was hoping for something better from my first beer in over 2 weeks (due to flu).

Cask conditioned at a Wetherspoons. Pale straw, greenish tinge with white head. There is a lovely dry bitterness right from the off with this beer, really hoppy with a grapefruity character. Thin on the palate but lasting flavours in the mouth. Very decent and enjoyable.

Cask, JDW, Carlisle. Pale fruity ale, refreshing and hoppy and maybe a touch too easy to drink at 4.8%......

Good deep flavour - don’t be fooled by the pale ’summer ale’ colour, as rich as many a darker, richer malt, yet hits the spot as a refreshing jar on a summers afternoon! (JDW, Tonbridge)

Cask in the market porter. Alround rating: Pale honey malt, light bitterness, grassy and herbal hop.

Cask at the Back of Beyond (JDW), Reading. Straw coloured with a dense white head; aroma of honey and sour grain; similar flavours with a sharp citrus bitter finish, which was the only redeeming feature of a rather boring brew.
