Cask at Merton Beer Festival Sept’ 2004. Warm yellow colour, without any head. Somewhat lacking in the flavour Department, a little bit dry not much bitterness, but I suppose could be regarded as quite refreshing. Not bad but nothing special.

Cask Conditioned at Merton Beer Festival ’04. Deep Gold with no head. I was really looking forward to this beer as Chiltern Beers are so hard to find, but it was a dissapointment. It is a thin dry bitter with a malty background. Tealeaf notes dominate the bulk of the beer which leaves barely any impression of having drunk it.

A pretty unsatisfying beer, although understandable within the ’mild’ tradition of English brewing. Typical color, scarce bubbles on top, but a better feel in the mouth than would be predicted by 3.7%. The taste, however, is disappointing: rather like American iced tea made from Lipton-brand tea-bags. (on tap at the brewery)
