Handpulled cask at JDW Hatch End. Amber with a white head. Biscuity malt and restrained english hops. A very ordinary bitter with no festive attributes whatsoever.

Cask-conditioned at the JDW inside Victoria Station, London 28/12/10. Amber with a slight white head. Sweetish, malty aroma with a hint of spicy hop. Flavour was seriously dull, with some caramel and a vague fruitiness, before a moderately bitter finish. A forgettable brown beer.

cask at the market porter. deep purple. decent xmas aroma of nutmeg, clove and various other gluehwein stuff. alas the rest of the beer is very dull with a hint of fairy floss sweetness

Cask (handpump) @ Market Porter, SE1, London. Clear dark red / amber color with a small virtually none, off-white head. Aroma is clove, allspice, butter, caramel (much like glögg). Flavor is moderate to heavy sweet and bitter with a long duration. Body is medium, texture is oily, carbonation is flat. (291206)

Cask@The Market Porter. Noticabel diacetyl characters. Buttery caramel flavours, with a slight sour edge. Lightly spicy notes towards the finish, otherwise not much happening.
