bobinlondon (215), Harrow, Greater London, England Jul 16, 2008 Handpulled cask at Nascott Arms, Watford. Amber with a creamy off-white head. Aroma is hoppy and fresh. Taste is although a bit thin, hoppy but also a reasonable amount of malt in there too, which gives it a certain sweetness among that dry finish. Dry hopped and very drinkable. greenmanalishi (177), Leicestershire, England Jun 11, 2008 dull bready bitter, though it’s balanced enough to be a pleasant drink found in many of the traditional pubs around leicestershire. chimp_lechamp (337), glasgow, Scotland Jun 3, 2008 bon accord- pours amber creamy offwhite head, looks fairly wonderful, nose is slightly wheat, bubblegummish, orange rind, tastes bitter with a long dry hoppy finish. this quite refreshing really nice. DruncanVeasey (1533), Burbage, Croatia Apr 19, 2008 The Traveller’s Rest, Beduff. Flat amber pint topped with white fluff. Faint raisiny fruit, a sprinkle of aniseed, bready malt afters. Dull and smooth. Seriously lacking any grrrr. hughie (2059), Bedford, Bedfordshire, England Apr 7, 2008 Updated: Apr 8, 2008Cask at Wellington Arms, Bedford. Amber. Malt and hop aroma. Some sweet malt in the taste, but also some fruit. Some bitterness. Fair but rather dull session beer. Next day: had another pint and thought it was rather better, so I’ve upped my rating from 2.8 to 3.0.
