maeib (4106), Wootton, Northampton, Northamptonshire, England Oct 8, 2008 Cask conditioned - handpump - Out Of The Vaults, Leicester. A light amber coloured bitter with a whitish head. The aroma is pretty fruity with plenty of berry notes. Fruity and malty in the mouth with those berries again. Fairly dry and nice.
albertane (310), Nottingham, Nottinghamshire, England Oct 5, 2008 Cask at the Brunswick, Derby. This brown beer has some nice sweet fruit flavours, but these are too faint for my taste and I found the beer to be somewhat thin. It’s a decent beer but no better than average. downender (1732), Bristol, Gloucestershire, England Sep 14, 2008 Cask-conditioned at The Royal Oak, Bath 14/9/08. Mahogany coloured with no head. Very fruity with lots of red fruit but balanced by a decent bitter finish. This grew on me throughout the pint. Good stuff. Fin (2454), Merton, Oxfordshire, England Sep 10, 2007 <i> Cask at Smithfest, Smithfield pub, Derby, 08-09-07 </i> Poured mid brown, and very much a standard session ale. Great tasty, fruity and punchy bitter with really solid bitterness. Another enjoyable beer from Leeds.
