Cask at The Mudlark, Southwark. Really light aroma. Maybe it’s malt. What can you say? Well balanced hop and malt, but not truly inspirational. Always an acceptable drink, but new brews tend to be more complex and interesting. Pity.

Cask at Wellington Arms, Bedford. Copper colour with a small white head. Fruity aroma. Sweet malt taste with fruit and some agreeable bitterness. Good straightforward quaffer. Better than I thought it would be. Why is the bottled version so poor?

Looks great in the glass, a reddish copper that has a small white head. Hints of butterscotch with a little toffee in the aftertaste. Goes down easy. Pretty nice and I like it a whole lot more than the bottled version.

[Cask from The Doublet] Amber with a tight head. Floral notes and caramel. Fairly heavy palate, some grainy malt, dry. Unspectacular but better than I expected.

Cask at The Golden Retriever, Bracknell. Ambered coloured with a thin white head; malty aroma; taste is slightly sour with a citric edge; leading to a dry, slightly bitter aftertaste. Very refined - the essence of an English bitter.
