(on tap @ Cino Lounge, Hilton Warwick) Pours a clear, dark amber with no head. Aroma is malt and urinal cake. Watery texture, light body, soft carbonation and a lightly bitter finish. Taste is bland.
2.7 AROMA 4/10 APPEARANCE 3/5 TASTE 7/10 PALATE 3/5 OVERALL 10/20
Cask. Dark clear gold. Thick cream coloured bubbles. Surprising amount of carbonation. Very floral nose, with bags of malt too. Smells a little like a urinal cake. Taste is floral, though not as pungent as the taste. Like drinking a weak pot pourri. Not unpleasant though... Finish has just enough bitter to take the edge off it.

UPDATED: FEB 29, 2012 On tap in London 04 aug11. Dark amber colour with a thick off white head. Mild malt and hoppy nose. Mild flavour but gives a nice mouthfeel. Medium sweet malt, light hoppy and a light roasted flavour in the background.

Tap @ Leopold Tavern, Southsea, UK. Pours dark amber with thick off white Head. Arma malts and hops. Dry hoppy flavor. Sweet, lean and still crisp on palate. Finishes bitter hoppy.

Cask. Amber with an off white medium head. Again, my nose is knackered so can’t smell fuck all. Flavour was a nice drinkable caramel with some light roasted malts and hop bitterness. I liked it.
2 AROMA 3/10 APPEARANCE 2/5 TASTE 4/10 PALATE 2/5 OVERALL 9/20
UPDATED: JAN 28, 2009 Unexpected rate at a Brewer’s Fayre-type place. Tawny amber with a nitro slick. Copper penny aroma. Watery with notes of rust, biscuit, caramel, nibble of hop extract. Thin, metallic and painful. But I drank it.

Keg beer tasted in Luton UK. A deep brownish colour. A proper amount of hops makes this a nice bitter.
2.3 AROMA 4/10 APPEARANCE 3/5 TASTE 4/10 PALATE 2/5 OVERALL 10/20
This was pretty good for a northern, keg brew. A deep brown colour and enough hops there to make it interesting, if a tad watery and bland.

Keg at the Prince Albert, Dover, England. It looks very nice, with a clear, still, copper-colored body and a nice, beige head leaving nice lacings. A bit big-bubbled head. The aroma is a bit weak, but balanced with malt and hops. The flavor is malty, with caramel, a light roasted note and some hops. Medium body and a mostly malty finish, but there’s some hops there too. A quaffable beer. (060713)
