2.6 AROMA 2/10 APPEARANCE 4/5 TASTE 7/10 PALATE 2/5 OVERALL 11/20
Half at Fellows Morton & Clayton, Canal Street, Nottingham. Looks the part - golden, clear, with a nicely sized head. The lacing was superb and clung to my glass well after I’d finished consuming the contents. Despite the creamy looking head it was disappointingly thin in texture underneath. The aroma just wasn’t there either - not a whiff. The taste is overwhelmingly bitter hops. Some bready, buttery notes did show themselves from about halfway down but they were trampled all over by the looong, bitter after taste that lasted well after I’d finished, left and caught my train home.

Hand pulled at the Waggon and Horses, Halesowen. Re-badged as Don’s Pale Ale, in honour of the landlord. Not too good: rather a burnt plastic taste, with a long dry finish and very feint hop. Thin in gob, with no aroma.
