3 AROMA 6/10 APPEARANCE 3/5 TASTE 6/10 PALATE 3/5 OVERALL 12/20
Cask conditioned at The Junction Tavern, Kentish Town, Gt London. Reddy brown with slight cream head. Sweet malty beer with a metallic edge, cloying and really not worth the £3:40 they charged. Dull.
2 AROMA 3/10 APPEARANCE 3/5 TASTE 4/10 PALATE 3/5 OVERALL 7/20
Aroma gives pure sulphur and cali hops. Taste also has some sulphur in it, sweet and unbalanced with that cali taste kicking about in it.

The Ugly Pub, Rochester. Dark & balanced & quite dry with a light twiggy finish and a hit of tobacco over the whole thing. OK, but a bit dull.
2.4 AROMA 4/10 APPEARANCE 3/5 TASTE 5/10 PALATE 2/5 OVERALL 10/20
Cask @ Henglers Circus. Dark amber colour, off-white head. Nose is caramel, vegetables. Flavour of massive caramel, vegetables, bit of biscuit and fruits. A bit harsh. Not good.
2.1 AROMA 5/10 APPEARANCE 3/5 TASTE 4/10 PALATE 2/5 OVERALL 7/20
Cask conditioned @ Giddy Bridge (JDW), Soton. Caramelly biscuity malts with some nuttiness and a little yeast leading into a creamy sweet caramel body with a light smattering of bittering hops in the finish. A bit sweet for me.
3.1 AROMA 6/10 APPEARANCE 3/5 TASTE 7/10 PALATE 3/5 OVERALL 12/20
Cask Conditioned, at the Market Porter, Borough, London.
Tawny amber colour with a misty beige head. Sulphurous and sugar malt aroma. But this beer drinks surprisingly well. A solid bitter with a few variations to keep the crowds guessing.
2.4 AROMA 4/10 APPEARANCE 3/5 TASTE 5/10 PALATE 3/5 OVERALL 9/20
Cask@ The Henglers Circus. Sour caramel vegetable aroma. Rich brown colour, good head. Fagash malt flavour, bitter sweet aftertaste. Very typical poor Caledonian bitter.
2.8 AROMA 5/10 APPEARANCE 4/5 TASTE 5/10 PALATE 3/5 OVERALL 11/20
Cask at The Muckle Cross, Elgin, Scotland.
Dark amber almost brown in appearance. Has nice thick,creamy tan head.
Nothing much in the aroma department..some malts.
Creamy malty taste, slight hint of hops in the end.
Mouthfeel was smooth and nice because of it being in cask.
I suppose this is drinkable but a tad wearisome.
