2.7 AROMA 6/10 APPEARANCE 3/5 TASTE 5/10 PALATE 3/5 OVERALL 10/20
Cask at Wellington Arms, Bedford. gold with a small white head. One of those confusing aromas. At first I said metallic and leafy, but a mango fruitiness emerged. Taste seemed to confirm initial diagnosis: rough and nettly with cardboard and a sharp bitter finish. Interesting, but on balance more of a miss than a hit.

Cask at the Three Guineas, Reading. Amber with a white head; rather thin and watery, slightly grainy flavour. Not very exciting.
