Cask conditioned at Barons Bar, Southport. Brown with white head. The 4.7% darker beer, add your own pumpclip from Cottage. Slighlty sweet and fruity bitter, its ok, but nothing special, maybe a tad bland, yawn.

[691-20070925] Cask @ Lamb & Flag (Oxford, OX). Light chocolate and faint alcohol aroma. Clear, rich amber brown body with a quick white bubbly head. Flavour has mild bland grains and some wood notes. Light body is thin. Mild overall, repeatable but boring. (New batch this year?)

Cask Handpump at the Cross Keys, Knutsford 30/01/2004 Mid brown coloured with sour fruit flavours. Smooth dry malt finish.

,i> Claret Freehouse. Dark amber with pleasant bubbly fading head. Nice beer - a gentle balance of fruit and soft, fragrant hops. A delicious English Bitter - very drinkable and satisfying. Nice one!

UPDATED: AUG 16, 2004 A decent amber strongish bitter. Well balanced and extremely drinkable. Very similar to the Tom Wood Bomber County (qv) which I had earlier in the evening. Handpump, Head of Steam, Euston, London NW1
