2.9 AROMA 5/10 APPEARANCE 3/5 TASTE 6/10 PALATE 3/5 OVERALL 12/20
Cask conditioned at a Wetherspoons. Gold amber, hazed, with white head. Fairly standard bitter with a slight fruitiness and sweetness, a little Wetherspoons special tartness, I reckon they should market this, cask ale with the Wetherspoons touch,a bit like a Belgian sour. Average sort of beer.

Cask Conditioned Handpump Wootton WMC Northants . A gold coloured beer with a thick pillowy white head and lacing. The aroma has fruit but is a little thin. The taste is fairly bitter behind a light fruitiness. Acceptable but overly safe.

Clear medium to dark orange color with a average, frothy, good lacing, mostly lasting, off-white head. Aroma is moderate malty, toasted, fruity, candy sweet, light to moderate hoppy. Flavor is moderate sweet and bitter with a average duration. Body is medium, texture is oily, carbonation is soft to flat. (310708)
2.1 AROMA 5/10 APPEARANCE 2/5 TASTE 4/10 PALATE 2/5 OVERALL 8/20
Cask (Regal, Cambridge)
Another reason to insult McSpoons. With challenger, as well as traditional bitter hops, this ought to be a great crisp golden ale. Instead, thanks to traditional Wetherspoons cellarmanship, it’s old and tired, and to be honest, bad. Must re-rate.

on cask at clockwork. hazy amber, decent lacing, rubber aroma, some weird sourness, lightly citric, not very drinkable
2.9 AROMA 5/10 APPEARANCE 3/5 TASTE 6/10 PALATE 3/5 OVERALL 12/20
Cask at Clockwork, Glasgow. A hazy amber beer with a thin off-white head. The aroma is sweet malty, and so is the flavor, though also added a light citrusy note.
