Cask in a boozer next to the police station on route to the wenlock arms. Alround rating: Sweet, popcorn almost pale malts, but balanced in the finish by some peppery grassy and slightly citrusy hop.

Cask conditioned - handpump - OGs Wellingborough A golden coloured beer with a whitish head. A bit fusty in the aroma. Bittersweet notes in the taste. Hints of honey. Tasting a bit tired.

[CASK: the Old House From Home, West Didsbury, Manchester 23/01/07] The pint I had was 3.9% and was a nice mild ale. Good taste and above average. Not bad for a best bitter and worth trying.

Cask at the Wellington Arms, Bedford. Golden, Fruit and hop aroma with a bit of sulphur. Odd grapey taste followed by grassy hops. Thin and watery. Little bitterness. Rather ordinary.

You could have a real session with this badboy. Incredibly moreish, but heavy enough to make it’s mark. Dry and malty with a pleasant aftertaste. I shall look forward to havein a few more of this local drop.

Cask conditioned @ Humble Plumb, Soton. Now at 3.6%. Herbal earthy hop aromas with fruit and a hint of sulphury yeast. Dry with rounded malt feel and a long hoppy finish. The sulphur seemed out of place for a skinners beer perhaps a result of the beer being slightly tired but on the whole quite tasty.

Cask handpull at East Cliff Tavern Folkestone. Light brown colour with malty fruit on the nose, good in mouth with more fruity malt and then dry hoppy finish. Session ale you want to keep tasting
