Direct from the brewery, and on tap at The Waterfall, Glen Maye. Nice hoppy beer, looks a nice ruby-brown colour. Head seems not to last, but is light tan. Nice gentle beer, very fruity and easy to drink. A little watery.

Warning! Early amateur rating! Unusual nutty, wheaty and slightly herby beer. Different and drinkable.

Cask. Hazy amber colour with mediumsized white head. Aroma is nutty and flowery along with some nectary and wooden hints. Flavour is a pleasant mix of fruity and flowery hops, quite much grass and caramel malts balancing it up. Some notes of cookies also.

harrisoni (9608) - Ashford, Kent, ENGLAND - JAN 27, 2006
Cask handpull at Fly in the Loaf, Liverpool. Copper colour with creamy head. Seem to use a tight sprinkler. Yeasty session bitter with goodish hop finish. Bit metallic. Even still tasty session beer. Bit thin around the edges but core yeast/caramel/hop falvours hold together well. A bitter that is bitter

Vladivostok (77) - Buckinghamshire, ENGLAND - JUN 3, 2010
I always reckoned this was the dead spit of the old Wethered’s Bitter from Marlow. Good level of bitterness although not big in aroma. Very refreshing and drinkable with a long bitter finish.

UPDATED: AUG 8, 2004 Copper coloured. Malty aroma with hoppy notes. Mellow malt palate and finish with good balancing fruity hops. Smooth and relatively full bodied for a session bitter of this strength. Dry finish. A pleasant, easy drinking, bitter. Handpump, The Speaker, London SW1, May 2003
