 Ethereal (724), London, Greater London, England
Dec 31, 2007 Cask at the White Horse, Parson’s Green, 30th Dec 2007. Caramel chestnut colour with a small head. Hoppy aroma with a raspberry hint. Uninspired flavour of malt and hops. Nice bitter finish, but the alcohol is suprisingly evident for a beer of only 4.5%. Bit of a mish mash really.
Mes_and_Sim (3967), London, Greater London, England
Dec 26, 2007 A Mes rate: Cask at Elephant ’Sporks.
Golden brown with a decent white head. Very floral and citric with a slight sweetness from some biscuity malt underneath. Dusty finish. Nothing special.
hughie (2059), Bedford, Bedfordshire, England
Dec 20, 2007 Cask at Wellington Arms, Bedford. Amber. Malty aroma and sweet malty taste with a little fruit and a hint of spice. Sharp bitter finish. Fair but unexceptional.
larsga (2119), Oslo, Norway
Dec 19, 2007 Thick creamy offwhite head slowly settles out of a milky carbonated body, leaving a sharp dividing line and under it a clear amber body. Head has very good cling. Milky fruity malty aroma, quite mild, with resiny notes, quite hoppy. Deep fruity resiny malty floral taste. Excellent harmony. Honey notes. Lots and lots of hops. Dry wooden resiny floral aftertaste. An excellent beer. (0.5pt cask at the Old Mitre.)
imdownthepub (3963), Banbury, Oxfordshire, Oxfordshire, England
Dec 15, 2007 Cask conditioned at a Wetherspoons. Amber with white head. Lightly flavoured winter bitter, some bitterness but mostly a slightly oily malt flavour. Some citric fruit and a touch of nut character, but largely lifeless restrained beer.
