Ungstrup (22906) - Oamaru, NEW ZEALAND - JUL 15, 2011
Cask at GBBF 2010. An amber beer with a yellowish head. The aroma has notes of hops and citrus fruits. The flavor is sweet with notes of caramel and chewy malt, leading to a dry finish. A bit boring.

Cask (handpump) @ GBBF 2010, Great British Beer Festival, Earls Court Exhibition Centre, London, England.

Clear medium amber color with a average, frothy, good lacing, mostly lasting, off-white head. Aroma is light to moderate malty, toasted - caramel, malt extract, light hoppy. Flavor is moderate sweet and bitter with a average duration. Body is medium, texture is watery, carbonation is soft to flat. [20100804]

berkshirejohn (2834) - Bracknell, Berkshire, ENGLAND - SEP 28, 2010
50cl bottle bought in Hastings. Reddish chestnut with a fading white head; stale malt aroma; tired flabby malt flavour with some thin caramel; and boiled cabbage to finish. Not one of GK’s best efforts.
