Cask-conditioned at the Watershed, Bristol 23/1/08. Amber coloured with a moderate off-white head. Aroma of sweet malt, orange peel and grassy hops. Aroma had a touch of sweetness, before some fruit and a satisfying hoppy finish. Very drinkable.

Feb 20, 2008 Cask, Far From The Madding Crowd. Pale gold, white head. Raw milkweed vegetable aroma, freezer burned hops. Minty hop forward flavor, something stale and disappointing about this. Worth a re-rate, since it looks like rating from a different cask seem to show a better beer that what is going on here.

Feb 17, 2008 <i>A Mes rate: Cask at Far From the Madding Crowd, Oxford during the RB pub crawl.</i><br />Copper coloured with a bubbly white film. Bland caramel malt with some tobacco and a faint sourness. Run of the mill.

Feb 11, 2008 Cask handpull, Far From the Madding Crowd, Oxford, RB Pub crawl 08. Last beer on the crawl for me. Standard golden bitter, bit above average. Drank very quickly as we had a bus to catch.
