Feb 27, 2009 On tap in the Ole Nags Head, Monmouth. Amber colour with sweet aroma. Thin white head. Earthy flavour. Very sweet, honey. Beer was not well looked after at all. Thin, no body, tasteless piddle. Probably a better beer somewhere else.

Mar 29, 2008 Cask conditioned at The Easington, Banbury. Mid brown with white head. Sweet malty beer, with very few hop notes. Thin, slightly watery, yeasty, touches of fruitiiness, a bit of a mish mash.

Mar 10, 2008 Cask in Counting house. Alround rating: Butterscotch, toffee, caramel, cola?, roasty hints, sweet. In bad condition as hazy an butterscotch, but nicely drinkable all the same.

Feb 21, 2008 Cask at the Duke of Wellington, Newcastle. This was very disappointing. It was thin and watery, and tasted of very little except some hints of malt. It certainly didn’t live up to the name.

Oct 7, 2007 Cask at The Olde Trip to Jerusalem, Nottingham, 28/09/07. Looks fantastic - the perfect amber pint with a neat head. Strong flowery hop aroma and a sweet flavour with a good bitterness. Palate is smooth but very slightly sticky. A good ale.

Sep 14, 2007 Cask. At The Eagle, City Road, London - yes, THAT Eagle, the one from the nursery rhyme. Clear, mahogany pour, average lasting beige head. Light roast caramel malt aroma, wheat and almost perfume hops, hint of fruit (raisins? baked apple?). The taste when delivered was both lighter and sweeter than I expected, but pleasant - light roast caramel malt, raisins, currants, fresh cereal grain and plenty of soft balancing dry floral hops. Very light bodied, dry, my notes say "mild everything - quick finish." I quite liked this brew, it made a nice change from a steady diet of bitter bitter bitter bitter - and it went down a treat!
