Handpulled cask at JDW Stanmore. Gold with a lacy white head. Robinsons beers are an aquired taste, they say. I aquired a liking for them 25 years ago and think that they are still one of the better regionals. This is a good example of their house characture. Dry with earthy hops and grainy malt. Very north western in style.

Sep 20, 2008 Cask handpull at The Phoenix, Canterbury. Gold, thin beige head. Bit of toffee, bit of yeast. It’s an alright yeasty bitter with some character. Actually not bad, good character, some drying hop on end.

Sep 6, 2008 Leicester ’Spoons. Orange amber with a flat silky collar. Dead metal fruit aroma smothered by sparkler. Sick-like scum, zero carbonation. Tedious thin marzipan stillness. Nothing refreshing or golden about it. Lingering floury Weetabix afters. Can’t be arsed finishing this.
