Cask Handpump at the Crescent, Salford 18/10/2006 Fruit aroma. Bronze coloured slightly rich on the palate and fruity. A little sweetness in the malt finish.

cask at Three Legged Mare, York: Reading the other ratings I don’t know what happend to that barrel down south, but here in York this is a very nice bitter. I would say its my type of bitter because the hops stand out more than the malt. Aroma was of citrus hops and malt. translucent and copper look with normal white cask head. Flavor was crisp with citrus with malt as a nice compliment. Really nice and fruity bitter. medium palate. Really nice bitter

Cask@The Market Porter, Borough, London. Yikes, sweet butterscotch and caramel, quite sticky, some sulfuric edge to the flavour. I had it the day after harrisoni, and i got completely different notes, maybe it went off?? This tasted like puke.

Cask handpull at Market Porter. Hazy copper colour with thin white head. Yeasty nose, some caramel.. In fact the aroma really is quite eggy and unpleasant. Bit of bitter crips hop on end and some citrus. But that aroma....
