Ethereal (2399) - Los Angeles, USA - DEC 29, 2010
Cask at the William IV (Brodies Autumn Fest), 4th Sept 2010. Hazy amber. Very light palate, as advertised. Lots of high alpha hop on the flavour. Like some of the other beers, the palate felt rather flat. Is this a house thing?

chriso (7065) - London, Greater London, ENGLAND - MAY 2, 2011
On cask (handpump) at Brodies Autumn Festival at the William IV on 4 September 2010. Amber colour. Dry, with some bitter, slightly dusty, hop presence. Light, tangy mouthfeel. Came across as a fairly standard bitter. Palatable but not that much happening.

harrisoni (10070) - Ashford, Kent, ENGLAND - DEC 29, 2010
Cask handpull at William IV. Gold, thin white head. Bit watery in mouth, some ok citrusy hops on the finish, bit too watery on the body. OK.

Finn (2610) - Tromsø, NORWAY - NOV 1, 2010
Cask på William IV, Leyton 29 Sep 10. Aprikosfarget. Lavt luftig skum. Uklar. Deilig fruktaroma. Smaken er plommer. En litt tørr syrlig bitterhet kommer sigende.

Rune (4924) - Tromsø, NORWAY - OCT 10, 2010
Cask, half pint at King William IV. Slightly unclear, gold-amber body. Naked surface. Notes of apricot to the nose. Blend of dark fruits, fresh citric fruits and mid-sweet malts to the taste buds. Mild and dry bitter end (Leyton, London 29.09.2010).

madmitch76 (6173) - , Essex, ENGLAND - SEP 5, 2010
4th September 2010. Brodies Beer Fest at their Brewpub - King William IV in Leyton.
Very slighty hazy gold beer with no real head. Low carbonation. Dry palate. Fresh orange grapefruit with a little malt balance. Decent enough.
