Quack-Duck (6811) - Down South, GERMANY - OCT 28, 2010
bottle from Topsham Wines (08/2010). Hazy pale strawy colour, mid-sized white head. Spicy citrusy nose. Light-bodied, malty, with lots of citrus flavours and aromatic hops. Hints of spices such as coriander and clove. It strongly reminds me of a (good) Dutch or Belgian blonde ale with some witbier character. A beautiful, light summer beer.

Vladivostok (156) - Buckinghamshire, ENGLAND - JUN 5, 2012
Rather more heavily carbonated than most cask beers and slightly hazy. Overall, a likeable gentle golden ale without too overt a citrus character. Well worth a session.

Theydon_Bois (2957) - The ’Sham, Surrey, ENGLAND - DEC 31, 2012
Cask at the Sussex Arms, Twickenham Green - 29/12/12. Clear mid amber with a thin off white head that clears to the edge and leaves a film. Nose is pale malt, light fruit notes. Taste comprises light hops, pale malt, summer fruits. Medium bodied with soft carbonation, light bitterness in the finish. Ok drinkable stuff if a little on the bland side.

johndoughty (3283) - cheslyn hay, West Midlands, ENGLAND - DEC 24, 2010
Bottle.Slightly cloudy with a thin body.Some bitterness but this is really quite band and forgetable. The label is the only thing I can remember about it.

imdownthepub (8470) - Banbury, Oxfordshire, ENGLAND - APR 20, 2012
Cask conditioned at The Turf Tavern, Oxford. Gold with only slight head. This was quite perfumed on the initial taste, burnt cracker note in the body, flowery fruity, passion fruit type note or even fruit cocktail. A touch over sweet, a bit of a mixed bag.
