Cask at Akkurat, Stockholm. Brownish amber. Buttery malt aroma. Medium bodied with restrained sweetness and soft, chewy mouthfeel. Buttery and a tad roasty, salty finish. A well balanced mildly flavourful quaffable bitter.

Cask conditioned at The Lamb & Flag, Oxford. Amber coloured with light head. Thinly flavoured slightly watery bitter, though there is an alcoholic bitterness and dry maltiness.

The New Road Inn, Leicester. Nutty brown with a dense white head. Aromas are caramel, chocolate and some sournes, that is quite unpleasant. Flavours are very smooth chocolate with sour fruit - an interesing, odd mixture. Perhaps this was the end of the barrel - but the pub I got it from is Cask Marque acredited so that can’t be the case!

A Mes Rate: Cask at Baker Street ’Spoons. Metallic and malty. Heavily wheaty with slight fruit in the finish. Quite strong yeasty character all ’round. Uninspiring in every department.
