Cottage Captain Jack

Cask handpull at Lower Red Lion, St Albans. Deep chestnut colour with lasting beige head. Bit of vinegar maybe. Dullish. Some dull malt, bit of plum fruit, some dryness on finish.

Cask conditioned at The Woolpack, Banbury. Brown amber with white head. Another fairly average beer from Cottage, they are definitely falling into the same trap as Archers. Perfumed, bitter, dry beer but fairly plain and basically dull. A touch of soapiness on the finish.
