Mungo (2472) - Southampton, - DEC 2, 2006
Cask conditioned @ Waterloo Arms, Soton. Light colour. Hoppy aroma - peaches and peppery resin. Slightly sweet malt but this doesnt interfere with the fruity hop middle and piney bitter hop finish. All about hops, bright and refreshing and quite moreish.

Svesse (4392) - Hässelby, SWEDEN - DEC 4, 2006
(Cask at Priory Arms, Stockwell, London, 24 Nov) Golden amber colour with small white head. Fruity nose with distinct aromas of citrus, mainly grapefruit. Lots of hops. Fruity taste with notes of grapefruit, pine-needles and a lovely citrussy, hoppy finish. Slightly sweet, but with a lovely hop character. Very nice.
