2.5 AROMA 4/10 APPEARANCE 4/5 TASTE 5/10 PALATE 2/5 OVERALL 10/20
Cask @ London Drinker 25:
Copper with a pretty laced head.
Light malty aromas with touches of cereal and hints of iron.
Weird barnyard straw with heavy savoury tones dominating it in the mouth.
Smooth but boring.
It is drinkable and kind of enjoyable but the flavour changes and it becomes lame pretty fast.
2.4 AROMA 4/10 APPEARANCE 3/5 TASTE 5/10 PALATE 2/5 OVERALL 10/20
First tasted this bitter in the George, Basingstoke June 1991. Cask, handpump dispense. Clear dark amber in colour with frothy white head and metallic tang in the aroma. Thin mouthfeel and good lacing. Pale malt gives a digestive biscuit base with tart marmalade fruit. Strong metallic hop resin tang present in the dry hoppy aftertaste. Finish is edged malt with a slight metallic hop tang present in the mouth. An ok session bitter.

(Cask @ Coopers, Rochester) A ’boring brown bitter’ in the most emphatic of ways .
2.5 AROMA 5/10 APPEARANCE 3/5 TASTE 4/10 PALATE 2/5 OVERALL 11/20
On cask at rose and crown, highworth. Inoffensive and boring banality. I doubt I’d bother if this was real ale.
