3 AROMA 6/10 APPEARANCE 3/5 TASTE 6/10 PALATE 3/5 OVERALL 12/20
10th November 2008. Clear gold beer. ’Burning’ as in a little smoky right? After the smoky shock of the start there is a crispy fruit beer here. Peach, orange and the ubiquitous grapefruit. Cuts through the slight smoke easliy! Not bad at all!
2.6 AROMA 5/10 APPEARANCE 3/5 TASTE 5/10 PALATE 3/5 OVERALL 10/20
Clear amber of color with an off white head. A pretty ordinary aroma of hops and bisquit. A flavor of citrus, bitter and dry.
2.7 AROMA 4/10 APPEARANCE 3/5 TASTE 5/10 PALATE 3/5 OVERALL 12/20
Cask @ The Pommeller’s Rest, JDW. Bermondsey SE1. Pours a clear golden color with a small off-white head. Has a fruity malty weak hoppy aroma. Fruity malty slightly hoppy citrus flavor. Has a fruity malty hoppy finish.
2.7 AROMA 5/10 APPEARANCE 3/5 TASTE 5/10 PALATE 3/5 OVERALL 11/20
Cask in the new crown. Alround rating: Typical golden/blonde ale, honey sweet pale malts, little hop character, slightly floral, boring.
2.8 AROMA 5/10 APPEARANCE 3/5 TASTE 5/10 PALATE 3/5 OVERALL 12/20
Cask handpull at Folkestone JDW. Gold, lasting beige head. Looks and in terms of mouthfeel in good nick. Just a little dusty and dull in terms of flavours. Some stinging dryness on finish. Shame as in amazing condition. Lovely lacing just a bit dull and stale malt.
2.1 AROMA 4/10 APPEARANCE 3/5 TASTE 4/10 PALATE 2/5 OVERALL 8/20
Cask, Lord keeper of the Great Seal, Oadby . Golden with an off white head. Aromas are thin biscuit malts. Dusty with dry hops. Flavours are thin malts with sugar. Nothing going on here. Really poor.
1.9 AROMA 2/10 APPEARANCE 2/5 TASTE 4/10 PALATE 3/5 OVERALL 8/20
Handpulled cask at JDW Watford. Gold with short lived suddy white head. Mass produced amber fluid of undescribable mediocrity.
2.2 AROMA 4/10 APPEARANCE 3/5 TASTE 4/10 PALATE 2/5 OVERALL 9/20
<i>A Mes rate: cask at Baker Street ’Sporks.</i>
Semi hazy gold, pointless white film topping. Bland as hell caramel malt and crying out for some hops. Inoffensive but mind numbingly dull.
