Mar 10, 2008 Cask conditioned - handpump - Malt Shovel Northampton. An amber coloured beer with a whitish head. The aroma is thin but there are fruity notes. The taste is malty and a little sweet with more fruity notes. It’s ok no more.

Feb 18, 2008 Cask, The Cow and Plough, Stoughton. Amber brown with a small head. Aromas are light toffee malts with spices. Unfortunately some detergent from the over-clean pub. Flavours are biscuit malts with caramel. Hints of citrus and spritzy soda water palate. Quite bitter on the finish. Tasty for its strength.

Apr 27, 2007 Cask (gravity dispense) at Reading Beer Festival, April 2006. Copper colour. A highly malty bitter in the traditional South Wales style. The malt is very deep and rich in the aroma, with caramel and toffee notes. Sweetish, with just a dab of earthy hops. Not really my favourite style but this is a well made example.
