COMMERCIAL DESCRIPTION
Cask.
Ingredients: Malt; sugar; East Kent Goldings, Goldings, Styrian Goldings.
A rich brown, easy drinking beer. Full bodied malty taste with a fruity, hoppy aroma. Brewed with fair trade sugar. The beer name was inspired by the practice in the New Forest of rounding up and checking the horses which is done at this time of year

From cask at Charlies. Pours clear and golden amber with a small off-white head. Aroma is smooth blackcurrant and light malty. Grapefruity hoppy, citrusy and mellow fruity. Smooth blackcurrant fruity flavour slowly building into the finish.

weaselkenievil (1089) - Cheshire, ENGLAND - MAR 26, 2010
Cask at the Oxfford in Macclesfield. Different. Amber gold with thick white creamy head. Not really my thing but I enjoyed the change from the average run of the mill beers they serve in there. Lot’s of tangerine, jammy flavours. Perhaps a little soap that put me off. Quite refreshing though. Not bad.

A Mes rate: Cask at Baker Street ’Sporks.
Copper colour with a faint white collar. Very soapy all round. You can tell there’s some good EKG in here but it’s all over powered by so far too obvious detergent. Is this the Metropolitan being its usual crap self or is this really how it left the brewery???

DonMagi (5599) - bantervile, Bedfordshire, ENGLAND - NOV 24, 2009
Cask in the Alfread Herring. Alround rating: Big leafy hop character, darker malts stay hidden but balance it nicely caramel coming through, the sugar doesnt bother you at all. Its nice and fresh and i ended up sessioning it all night.

Handpulled cask at JDW Watford. Copper with a thin white head. Sweet and malty with soft fruitiness. Reasonable hoppiness comes through in a late bitter finish.
