Bottle conditioned, 500ml from Asda, Milton Keynes. Amber with orange hue, white head. Not great in the bottle, quite tart and seemingly off despite being well within date. Grainy, sourish, some underlying caramel and sweetness. Below average.

Bottle. Bronze beer with a light head. The aroma is gently hopped and caramel, and the flavour is plainly malty and hopped with quite a strong lingering bitter finish. Overall a fairly average beer.

Bottle Conditioned. Pours a nice light brown colour with a medium white head. Plenty of fruit in the aroma, with a soft dry biiter taste of pears. A good well made beer.

Cask at The Pembury Tavern. An undistinguished brown beer. Malt dominates but with bitter finish. Good condition.
