MrWalker (928), Stockholm, Sweden Feb 28, 2005 Cask @ Camra National Winter Ale Festival, Manchester, UK 27 Jan 2005 Nice session beer with some malt. Refreshingly undemanding. Good hoppy aftertaste. DruncanVeasey (1735), No. 46, Leicestershire, Germany Apr 26, 2007 2pt cardboard takeout from The Merchant, Rugby. Honeyish amber pour sniffing mustily. Stinks of hops a good 2hrs after the pour. The weakest but possibly the best of the 10 or so beers I’ve sampled tonight at The Merchant Fest, Rugby. Wet straw, honey, biscuity malt, ammonia. An undeniable waft of bunny hutch. In the nicest sense. Delicate, tea-like hoppiness. Flavour-packed sessions with a moreish malt-hop balance. RichardGretton (2681), Leicestershire, England Oct 28, 2005 Cask@Nottingham Beer Festival. Golden beer, looks like mango juice. The aroma is dry and fruity and the flavour is plain fruity and dry. Overall a plain beer. haddonsman (1191), Derby, Derbyshire, England Jan 10, 2006 Cask (handpulled) at Langty’s, Nottingham. On DeepBlack’s stag crawl. In a day that brough forth a whole host of beer styles, this was a dependable bitter. Nothing fancy, just good plain session stuff. harrisoni (5331), Ashford, Kent, England Oct 21, 2007 Cask gravity at Nottingham BF 2007. Copper, thin lasting bubbly beige head. Slightly yeasty, decent light bitter, in good condition, fine, interesting for a light bitter.
