Cask Conditioned at Ealing Beer on Broadway Festival, 2006. Ruby red. Fruity, malt and alcoholic aroma. Sweet malty taste, yeasty and alcohol warmth, dark fruits and a bit of apple, perhaps some caramel and some balancing bitterness in the background. Very good.

Clear dark amber. Sticky lacing. Aroma is boozy. Vanilla malt, berry jam and floral. Oily medium body. Booze is a bit too prevalent. Malty and sweet. Not complex. Basically a red with extra alcohol. Meh.

cask at charlies amber, smooth white head. Mild aroma . Flavor is sweet malty, caramelly, dry herbal boozy note, syrupy note. Complex flavors base the slightly boozy syruppy brew, making it interesting

Cask Real Ale 0.25L at Angleterre. Mild nose. Dark coppery colour. Pale beige head (3mm). Slightly sweet malty mild hopped taste. Alcohol well hidden. Fruityness. So good that had to take another.

Cask at the London Drinker. Pours clear gold with a fine, white head. Some sweet malts and light fruits in the nose. Very sweet flavor, some berries, sugar, light leaves. Medium to full bodied with fine carbonation. Faintly warm finish, light toasted sugar, some sweet dough. Nice.

Cask@Beer Hunters
Clear copper color, steady small off-white head. Fruity, sweetish aroma. Medium-bodied. Nutty, fruity, a bit sweetish caramel - fruit candy, alcohol. Light hoppyness. Very similar to some Vintage Ales, but not so complex.

(Cask at Kittys, 20120215) The beer poured deep amber and clear. Its head was small and forthy. Aroma had malts, caramell and molasses. Palate was medium bodied and warming with low carbonation. Flavours were molasses, caramell, sweetness, hops, malts and bitterness. Aftertaste was a bit harsh, quite sweet and a bit bitter. Quite harsh taste and altogether a bit disappointing.

Southampton CAMRA 2009 AGM@Fleming Arms, Southampton. Dark gold with a rich alcoholic and red berries nose. Malt and booze with a long finish.

Cask at the Red Lion, Isleworth. Caramel and a little fruit on the nose, with hints of orange and brandy. The body is rich and thick, warming and honeyed, but with a balancing bitterness and a well blended honey-dry aftertaste.

Cask. Pours a cloudy opaque nutty brown with a tiny rough off-white head. Some phenols and oxidized nuttiness in the nose combined with warming alcohol. Quite full-bodied, sweet caramel and nuts, oxidization, solvents and a warming alcohol rounds this off. 050211
