 FatPhil (1960), Espoo, Finland
Jul 14, 2008 Cask (Village Inn, Rayners Lane)
Mid orange brown, tiny loose head. Fruity pudding aroma. Soft palate. Slight zing from the hops. Big sweet malty body, slightly creamy, and lovely well balanced noble hops. Probably a session heaven, but does veer towards wet sheep after a while.
Ethereal (723), London, Greater London, England
Jul 2, 2008 Cask at the Cove, Covent Garden, 26th April 2004. Clear amber, served in excellent condition. Aroma of hops, hay and a hint of honey (yay alliteration!) Good floral hop flavours and a soft palate with a lingering dry finish. A decent bitter.

Jun 27, 2008 Handpulled cask at JDW Watford. Dark amber with thin white head. Rather watery tasting for a 4% best bitter. Nothing much going on at all really. Bland.
