UPDATED: FEB 9, 2009 Cask, gravity at The Old Oak, Rurad Bar, Horsely Woodhouse, Derbyshire in the company of Loz, Simon, Mrs H, my dad and Pauline 23-01-09 Pours reddy brown off white head, quite dark in this pub so a little tricky to be certain on the colour. Aroma is a touch sweet with some marzipan, seaside rock, and cane sugar, much of this was also present in the mouth. I quite liked this beer but the sweet maltiness became a little much at times, nice warmth from the alcohol. A6 A4 F6 P3 OV13 3.2

Cask, on the drop from the glorious RuRAD bar at the Old Oak, Horsley Woodarse, with Mrs H and Fin and Loz and Fin’s Dad and Pauline. Dirty brown with steeped maltiness and creeping sweetness. Not a touch on the Salopian that became the house beer for the table tonight but stil la canny drop.
