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 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 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!
