| 3.2 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 7/10 | 3/5 | 6/10 | 3/5 | 13/20 | Oct 19, 2006 Cask handpull at The Swan on the Green, light brown colour. Smoother than the Trumpeter but still hoppy. Not as malty as the Trumpeter either. You couldn’t tell it had port in, but there is a definite sweetness that isn’t coming from the malt. duff (5475), Surrey, Greater London, England
| 1.9 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 4/10 | 2/5 | 4/10 | 2/5 | 7/20 | Jul 27, 2003 Updated: Sep 22, 2003Hrd to believe they had a bottle of port too each cask, i can't taste it. Grainy apple juice, really thin and annoying, probably one of the worst beers i had at the festival (Cask KentBF 03') Nuffield (2749), Roseville, Minnesota, USA
| 1.7 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 3/10 | 3/5 | 3/10 | 3/5 | 5/20 | Jul 27, 2003 Aroma of pepper and frozen lasagna. Hazy amber color. Flavors of ice tea, latex, and roasted onion and parsnip. Little influence from the port that is added (one bottle per cask, supposedly), except that it is a bit oily. Dreadful.

| 1.5 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 5/10 | 2/5 | 3/10 | 1/5 | 4/20 | May 19, 2003 Updated: Jul 27, 2003 Cask, Swan brewpub, Kent. Raspberry nose. Ruby red colour. Like an Irish Red beer. Caramel sweet. A little sticky. Crude and undeveloped, like a homebrew not left long enough to ferment. [2.1] Re-rate. Gravity Cask, Kent Beer Festival, with Nuffield & Duff. Foul. Tastes raw and undeveloped. Yuck! One sip was more than enough, but I tried again and it was worse second time. Drain pour. [1.5]
