 Pub (4047), Banbury, Oxfordshire, England
May 12, 2007 Cask conditioned at The Woolpack, Banbury. Orange amber with thin white head. Glad I didn’t have this at St Albans BF, I would have missed out on quite a decent beer, plenty of smooth fruity, apricot/peach notes, maybe a touch overdone on the butterscotch notes but a reasonable hoppy finish. Not bad.

Oct 11, 2005 Cask@St Albans beer festival. Diacytel character ruins this beer. Some caramel and touches of beery fruit. Boring and sweetish otherwise. Can’t say too much about it.

Oct 7, 2005 Cask (gravity dispense), St Albans Beer Festival 2005 (last day). Copper colour. Diacetyl and caramel in equal measure. Not my thang at all. Some berry fruit in the flavour provides welcome relief. Quite soft.

Oct 3, 2005 Cask conditioned - handpump - St Albans BF. A mid brown coloured beer with loads of diacetyl in the aroma, but also a pleasant swwet malty alcohol smell. The taste is quite fruity and there are caramel notes. Quite nice really when all’s said and done.

Oct 2, 2005 Cask (St Albans 05): Amber clear liquid with a buttery aroma. Taste is similar with some mild cara notes. Not great.
