chriso (7065) - London, Greater London, ENGLAND - DEC 16, 2006
Cask (gravity dispense) at London Drinker Beer Festival, March 2006. Pale amber colour. Initial whiff of butterscotch on the nose but, thankfully, that seemed to burn off quite quickly. Dryish on the palate with some spicy hop character and a touch of resin. Not much zing, but the overall impression was quite pleasing though. Condition may not have been perfect.

maeib (6632) - Wootton, Northampton, Northamptonshire, ENGLAND - MAY 1, 2006
Cask conditioned - gravity dispense - Reading BF. A copper coloured beer. The aroma has some good orange hop notes. The taste has good hops but ends a little cloying and sweet.

Another non really interesting beer from this brewery, maybe I;m not into the bitters but it can be very boring.

duff (5483) - St, Margarets, Greater London, ENGLAND - APR 11, 2006
Cask@London Drinker. A pale lagery sort of ale. Some citric hops in the finish. NOt a lot going on if i’m being honest, but there was something that i quite liked about it, in terms of drinkability. I bit on the thin side however.
