JDW, Eastbourne. Soft, frothy head. Autumnal. Damp leaves. A typical Autumn Ale - a splash of crystal malt. Slightly stale tasting. Not great.

[CASK: Ra!n Bar, Manchester 02/12/06] A good autumn ale that is more of a winterish ale I thought. A rich ruby ale with a pleasant finish of good flavour. Worth a try.

ugh this tasted like a bad combination of swimming pool water and off camembert rind - undrinkable. i took it back and complained to the barman who took great offence and kept muttering we’ve had it for two years, never had a problem bla bla bla. so i can only assume it’s a bloody awful beer with industrial-grade bleach in the recipe.
