Had on cask at RFD in DC. Absolutely piss beer. Totally watery, musty and flat. Not a pleasant beer at all. Clear gold in color, thin head, and musty flavor. Close to a skunky wet towel flavor. (On Tap 12/27/2007)

Cask @ Market Porter, Borough. Pours a clear pale golden color with a small white head. Fruity malty hoppy aroma. Sweet malty hoppy flavor. Sweet malty finish with a bitter aftertaste.

Cask at Pete’s Waterfront (Bklyn). Hand pumped a slightly hazy golden color with a thin head. Some slight lemon in the aroma as well as grassy notes and light cereal (almost wheaty) malts. Nice clean flavor--straw to cereal malt, kind of wheaty tasting, with a slightly grassy hop finish. I think I hit this cask at just the right time--everything seemed to be in equilibrium. Clean, mild, smooth, no infirmities, just pure golden real ale, very poundable and refreshing.

Cask at Charlie’s, Copenhagen
Golden color. The aroma has some grassy hop. Balanced flavor, dry malt, good grassy hop, and a quite clear yeast footprint that improves it. Dry and a bit astringent. Good and refreshing.

Half pint cask at Charlies. Pours clear and golden and with little white head. Aroma is slight floral. Flavour is medium sweet to dry. Quite fruity towards floral. Finish holds a fresh bitter and floral note. Nice.
