Mar 26, 2006 Cask conditioned at Coventry Beer Festival. Golden colour with whispy white head. This has a big farmyard eggy nose, phew, I thought someone had been indiscreet nearby. Once you get over the heavy Burtonisation, which incidentally is how Marstons Pedigree should be, this is a pleasant Best Bitter with a neat relenting biscuit malt and a good old fasioned English Bittering hop for a long bitter finish. Particulary good I would imagine, after a hard days waling on Kinver Edge which is terific if you are there.

Mar 21, 2006 Cask (gravity) at the Burton summer CAMRA festival 2005. Fairly plain but well crafted bitter - nice balance and sustained bitterness.
