[Cask from The Three Judges] Deep amber colour with a light foamy head. Floral with buttery toffee notes and some ripe berry fruit. Light on the palate, fruity and dry.

Cask (handpump) at Peter Kavanaghs, Liverpool, April 2008. Nice bright amber colour. Unfortunately, that’s where the good bits end. The aroma majors on diacetyl and this carries through into a buttery character on the palate, although its not quite as prominent there. Couldn’t really delve below the diacetyl to explore the underlying beer. Drinkable (just) but not a very enjoyable experience. Mark down for a re-rate.
