Sep 15, 2007 Cask conditioned at The Woolpack, Banbury. Brown amber with slight white head. Rick told me that he thought the person on the phone had said ’Best Bitter’, oh yeah. Dull, malty bitter, sweetish, a little cloying, not one thing in particular stands out. A bit of a booby this one.

Smooth on the palate with plenty of malt present.

Jul 13, 2004 Cask-conditioned @ JDW, Soton. Creamy, nutty aroma with a hint of wort. Slightly sweet with creamy bitter finish. Creamy and drinkable but unsatisfying.

Apr 12, 2004 Breast! Oh ho ho ho... Hand pulled at The Anchor, Birmingham. Smells like stale milk. A grey/brown colour, with a reasonable head. A very foody taste - egg or batter mix, or maybe cake mixture. Some caramel too. Very smooth transition from front to back - no dryness or hops, just sweet and lilting. OK, but rather cloying.
