Cask at Reading Beer Festival 02-05-08 following a two hour queue to get in grrrr! Pours light amber almost orangey in colour with off white head. This is an interesting beer in that it has some soap like qualities in the mouth and yet I still like it, there is a soft maltiness and the bitterness is really quite restrained but for my first beer from this brewery that is quite local to me I found it a very decent effort.

Jun 7, 2008 Cask conditioned at The Woolpack, Banbury.Copper to amber with white head. I found this to be a little dull, a malty thin bitter with a caramel toffee background. A burnt sweetness with a yeasty note. Drinkable but just not exciting.

May 4, 2008 The Harvester, Long Itchington ’08. Amber brown measure. Similar nutty caramel notes to the Rugby, but much sweeter. Hints of barrel and slightly vinous fruit. Vanilla, creamy malt, Innis and Gunn sweetness. Not bad at all.
