<i>2008-11-09, Cask Conditioned at J.D. Watherspoon - The Shakespear’s Head, London, 5-3-5-3-11</i>
Light amber color. The aroma is light, but it reminds me some white wine. Ordinary malt flavor, with a very light fruitness. Not impressive, but slightly better than my first impression.

Light amber color. Some caramel flavor, balanced, but too simple, quite boring.

Dark gold with a thin white head. Fruity malt aroma that is bland yet inoffensive. Similar flavour but with an odd hint of strawberry and a very faint bitterness in the finish. So so until the nasty bready hit in the aftertaste.
