Cask-conditioned at the Inn on the Green, Bristol. Amber coloured with a moderate head. Aroma of caramel and red fruits. Flavour was of rich malt with a dry finish. Pretty good but extra alcohol didn’t add a great deal.

[1011-20071229] 500mL (w/ jerc). Smells like grainy poo. Cloudy, dark brown body with a medium-lasting creamy white head and nice lacing. Bitter grainy malt flavour. Medium body is fairly smooth. Disgusting aroma.
3.7 AROMA 7/10 APPEARANCE 4/5 TASTE 7/10 PALATE 4/5 OVERALL 15/20
This bottled brew poured a large sized head of fine to medium sized mostly lasting off-white colored bubbles that left behind a good lacing and a dark orange brown colored yeasty semi-transparent body. The aroma was mediumly hopped with a good caramel note. The mouth feel was initially mildly harsh with a medium hoppy feeling that surprisingly disappears in the finish rather quickly leaving behind only a mild hop aftertaste. The flavor contained notes of mild caramel mixed with hops and a fair amount of malt keeping the bite down.
2.9 AROMA 5/10 APPEARANCE 3/5 TASTE 6/10 PALATE 3/5 OVERALL 12/20
Cask @ Charlie’s bar. I can’t believe how smoky this place really is. I had no enjoyment at all with this beer, and that is a petty. Really think they should make this place smoke free, so we can actually taste the beers that are being served. Small creamy beige head that mostly diminished. Fair display of lacework. Somewhat cloudy amber color. Aroma was killed by cigarette smoke, what I could pick up was light fruit, hint of toasted malt, light floral and citrus notes as well. Over the palate the hops becomes a bit more evident. Light to medium bodied with a soft carbonation and light dry texture. Light bitter and sweet flavor in fairly good balance. Light dry and bitter finish.
3.6 AROMA 7/10 APPEARANCE 4/5 TASTE 7/10 PALATE 3/5 OVERALL 15/20
Best before July 23, 2009. Murky copper color with a large, rocky head. Aroma of sweet malt and a dry, earthy hop. Fruity taste, with a bit of apricot and apple. Qutie bready along with some yeast. Light floral hop finish. Quite nice.
