SilkTork (3716), Rochester, Kent, England Jul 16, 2007 Dartford Beer Fest. Biscuit and toffee pale malt with a light dusting of fragrant hops. Lovely balance. Quite drinkable and pleasant. Though it possibly lacks the character, charm and interest for a really impressive beer, this could grow on me. [3.9] Doppelganger (1018), Oxford, England Jul 26, 2006 Updated: Aug 7, 2006Cask, Far From The Madding Crowd. Bright copper with a small off-white skim. A nice sweet rose aroma with a touch of orange, and a whiff of dill. Warmly grainy malt, marmalade, and an herbal finish. A nicely layered unveiling of flavors. Soft creamy sweetness that still finishes dry between sips. A well-made and well-served ale.

imdownthepub (3740), Banbury, Oxfordshire, England Sep 20, 2003 Cask Conditioned at Oxford Beer Festival. A golden amber beer with fluffy head. A refreshing light soft malt and tangy hopped beer, light on the tongue with a background bitterness. Soft fruity throughout, a very decent bitter.
