Pub (4124), Banbury, Oxfordshire, England Dec 28, 2007 Cask conditioned at Far from the Madding Crowd, Oxford. Hazed Gold with white head. Poured straight from the barrel. Big, wonderfully flavoursome, clean, dry bitter, plenty going on with orange and grapefruit in the foreground and then a lemon rush, all on top of a clean dry malt as a carrier. Very tasty indeed. Doppelganger (1206), Oxford, Oxfordshire, England Dec 13, 2006 Cask, Far From The Madding Crowd winter festival. Slight hazy gold with a small, dense, just off-white cap, and a nice ring of lace. Gorgeous full fresh citrus aroma. Sun-ripened lemons, an undercurrent of raspberries. Just an extravagantly aromatic beer. Loads of citrus hop flavor, lemon up front, transitions to tangerine. A touch of catty flavor, which adds some texture. Light restrained clean malt. A fairly modest level of bitterness--it’s certainly there, but much more hop flavor than bitterness. Delicate, soft. Just a cracking good beer. Served in good shape, and a wonderfully big (but not overbearing) experience of hoppy goodness. Dixen (1465), Copenhagen, Denmark Jan 31, 2006 Cask at Charlie’s, Cph. Very fruity and hoppy nose, with hints if light bready malts and some elderflower. Golden colored body with a bubly white head. Crisp and lemony hop flavor, with a light malty note. Very drinkable and very refrshing. joergen (6529), Frederiksberg, Denmark Jan 16, 2006 Cask at Charlies.
