Cask conditioned Gravity dispense Northants BF 2010. An amber coloured beer. Wow this is quite big and bold. Nice hops and a big long body with great depth. The alcohol is a bit hot and the whole thing is sweet yet hoppy, fruity and a little vinuous. Pretty nice and large complexity.

Cask Handpump at the Crown Inn, Stockport 22/05/2010 Big hop aroma. Golden bronze coloured hoppy and floral with some alcohol present. Dry and slightly bitter malt finish.

Cask in the market porter. Alround rating: Sweet nutty malts, infact massivly sweet cloying and has this sickly bittersweet finish. I got abouta quarter of the way through this before i realised it pritty much undrinkable.

Cask @ The Market Porter. Amber with a thin white head. Sweet malts and some citrus hop in the nose. Flavor again has sweet malts and leafy grapefruit hops, body is somewhat syrupy. Best of the worst I suppose.

Cask, Far From The Madding Crowd, Oxford. Part of the lingering week-after their Spring festival, as they slot in casks there wasn’t quite space for during the festival proper.

Copper, sticky, soapy white cap. Blood orange and strawberry aroma, a touch of leaves. Citrus earthy bitterness, berry esters. Sweet, but not sticky. Medium body. Balanced, flavorful. Very nice!
