Cask Handpump at the Brunswick, Derby 12/07/2007 Strong and fruity aroma. Golden coloured with some alcohol present. A little dryness in a crisp and bitter lasting malt finish.

Cask, Derby Fest 10. Golden with an off-white foam. Aromas are biscuit and orange marmalade with lemon and grassy hops. Fruity with yeast. Flavours are sweet lemon with grassy hops. Biscuit sweetness with yeast and lager malts. Dry on the finish. OK.

Cask (handpump) at the Brunswick. In a range that’s usually either froth or simplicity, this is a standout strong bitter. Strength to the robust fruity nose and seeping alcohol. Bitter indeed, alongside Rich Tea like bite-i-ness. Shame it’s not a regular beer - I’d take this ahead of Second Brew any day of the week.

Cask conditioned - handpump - Brunswick Derby. An orange coloured beer with an off-whote coloured head. The aroma is fruity and hoppy with biscuity malts and alcohol. Some marmalade notes also. All of these attributes come through in the taste, but it’s the orange marmalade and biscuity flavours which stand out. A good chewy body and the alcohol is nice.
