Joeh (1892), Buckinghamshire, England Jun 11, 2002 Tested Cask-Conditioned. A very good cask ale. Delicious malt, the hoppy bitterness is well balanced against sweetness. Ethereal (1167), London, Greater London, England Aug 3, 2008 Cask at the White Horse, 12th July 2008 with renffisch. Rich dark amber appearance with a strange aroma that brings to mind foliage and tree sap! Great nutty and malty taste, boosted by some nice fruity notes in the middle. Smooth with a good weight, I found this a very flavoursome and enjoyable pint. bman1986 (93), Broadstairs, Kent, England Aug 7, 2008 Cask at Foy Boat, Ramsgate: Dark mahogany coloured bitter. Fruit, nuts and chocolate with a nice maltiness. This one surprised me, really good bitter. Svesse (1920), Hässelby, Sweden Aug 7, 2006 (Cask, Market Porter, London, 22 July) Colour is dark amber, with little head. Nose is malty, a bit fruity with dried fruit, caramel and a nutty hint. Taste starts malty and nutty then turns fruity with hints of dark cherry and a balanced dusty hoppiness in the finish. Balanced but a bit understated. Nice though.

Amber coloured pale and bitter. Some sweetness in a full hop finish.
