2.9 AROMA 5/10 APPEARANCE 3/5 TASTE 7/10 PALATE 2/5 OVERALL 12/20
Cask (Peterborough BF 2007)
Golden colour. Honey aroma. Very easy to drink, maybe lacking hops. A bit boring.
2.5 AROMA 6/10 APPEARANCE 3/5 TASTE 5/10 PALATE 2/5 OVERALL 9/20
Cask [gravity dispense] at GBBF, day 3 on 3 August 2006. Clear amber colour. Aroma is not too bad - some light biscuit malt with a touch of fruit salad. However, on the palate there’s a sort of washed out honey feel that I find rather unpleasant. It’s as if the honey flavour has gone but the sweetness is left behind. And in a rather watery body with very little hop presence to liven things up. Not great.

Cask. A hazy golden beer with a lazing beige head. The aroma has notes of malt and caramel. The flavor is sweet with notes of malt and caramel, leading to a dry toffeeish finish.

2.2 AROMA 4/10 APPEARANCE 3/5 TASTE 4/10 PALATE 2/5 OVERALL 9/20
Cask. Pours a clear pale amber with an off-white head. Lightly sweet caramel aroma. Thin and watery, light nut and fruit accents - perhaps a whiff of smoke? No bitterness. I don’t any beer gets thinner than this. 190110

UPDATED: JAN 17, 2009 Cask at Pilgrim’s Progress (JDW), Bedford. Amber with a small white head. Little aroma noticeable. Odd sweet taste with a hint of chocolate and ash. Suppose it could be honey. A little fruity sourness. Some bitterness. 17.1.09. Cask at Wellington Arms, Bedford. Amber, small white head. Sweet honey malt aroma. Convincing honey comb flavour surmounts earthy malt. Some bitterness. Rated: 6,4,6,4,12:3.2
