Cask at Market Porter, London. Fruity aroma, grassy notes, some grapes and pears. Apple and pear flavor, grapes, hops, spicy, some pepper. Fruity spicy finish.

Cask by handpump at Last Post, Paisley for Battle of the Brewers between Ayr, Isle of Skye and Kelburn (25 Feb 12) - pleasnt floral aroma, clear golden ale with small off-white head, smooth, fruity, refreshing, excellent session beer

Lovely blonde looks and a decent head. Aroma of citrus fruits and resin. Nice fruity flavours. This is an ideal thirst quencher.

On cask at Cloisters. A golden ale with a thin white head. Musty aroma of hay, cardboard, woody and grassy hops. A rubber flavour which didn’t really excite me. Also yeast and barley flavours.

UPDATED: MAY 9, 2012 50cl bottle. Light amber ale with some bubbles and some head. The nose has pine and grapefruit which slowly opens up to give a delicate sweet maltiness. The taste is of pine and soap. The palate is full and creamy with a long refreshing finish, in fact quite balanced. This is a nice beer of which I’d be delighted to drink at least a couple. There is loads of flavour for a session-strength ale.

1st December 2010
Pigs Ear. Clear gold beer. Dry palate, low carbonation. Soggy sweet malt with a little bitter orange. Messy and a bit too much like hard work.

Cask at the Pig’s Ear BF 2010. Amber gold pour with no head. Malts and light nuts in the nose. Sweet, malty flavor with light toast, light earth, and cirtrusy bitterness. Light to medium in body with fine carbonation. Bready malt finish with faint, orange citrus notes. Pretty standard stuff.

Cask (gravity) @ 27th Pigs Ear Beer and Cider Festival 2010, at The Round Chapel in Hackney, London, England

Clear medium amber orange color with a small to average, fizzy, fair lacing, mostly diminishing, off-white head. Aroma is moderate malty, caramel, moderate hoppy, grapefruit, orange - citrus. Flavor is moderate to light heavy sweet and bitter with a long duration, hppy, plastic notes. Body is medium, texture is oily, carbonation is soft to flat. [20101130]

Cask (gravity dispense) at Pigs Ear Beer Festival on 30 November. A fairly standard amber session bitter with a modicum of spicy hop character and light biscuity malt backing. Quite acceptable, but entirely unremarkable, although condition could have been better. There are times when a session bitter does the job but there’s not much else to say. This is one of them. Maybe something more might have emerged had it been a bit more lively.

@ Malt & Hops. Gold, clear, with tight head. Wet earth and damp wood. Soft and oily palate. A slight buttery effect but not really a diacetyl issue. Juicy flowers.
