Adnams Regatta

Cask conditioned handpump Sole Bay Inn Southwold A golden beer with a small off white coloured head. The aroma has some nice spicy hop and a bit of citrus and a touch of grass. The taste is reasonably hoppy with some orange citrus notes. Pretty tasty.

Cask (handpump) @ The Fat Cat, Norwich, England NR2.
Clear medium yellow orange color with a average, frothy, fair lacing, mostly lasting, off-white to white head. Aroma is moderate malty, grain, sour malt. Flavor is moderate sweet and light to moderate bitter with a average duration. Body is medium, texture is oily to watery, carbonation is soft to flat. (310708)

Cask at The White Swan, St Peters: Straw coloured ale. Malty with a strange cider-like flavour to it. Little hops thrown in there. Not bad, but not particularly great.

pours very pale yellow with a thin creamy head. nose is spicy apple. apple crumble, taste is somewhat spicy with a very light sweet flavour. a nice summer sessioner. but not much to it in terms of complexity.

Cask at The Country Girl, Selly Oak, Birmingham. Straw with a good-sized dense head. Malty scent with grasses and some caramel. Slight carbonation. Good mouthfeel. Earthy malts with some hop on the end. Nice but not complex. Dry end.

Cask @ Bridge House, Southwark. Pours a clear pale yellow color with a small white head. Fruity and slightly floral hoppy aroma. Malty fruity and slightly hoppy flavor. Sweetish malty bitter hoppy finish.

Draught at Duke of Wellington, Waterloo. Nose of hops and some metal. Taste is weak and thin, some malt and hops but the metallic taste is a bit much for me. FInishes with a long dry note.

Draught (Cambridge Blue, Cambridge) Dark yellow (looks green to me, but I’m colour-blind!). Sweet cornflakey aroma. Taste also cornflakey. Not the only recent Adnams to match that fingerprint.
