Pint pulled at the JDW Railway in Putney (London), a clear amber with a foamy white head. A flowery hop aroma. A good light bitterness on the palate combined with a strong hoppy flavour. A good solid bitter.

UPDATED: AUG 8, 2007 Cask pint at a pub in the Gatwick Airport in London
Juicy orange in color, full, pillow-like white head. Has a bit of a juicy, hoppy bite, more sour on the back, with a bit of a gritty, spoiled celery flavor. Nose is slightly hoppy, with some orange juice citrus and bean sprouts/celery scents that take too much away. A bit of a mess.

Cask@Twickenham beer Festival. Some leafy hop characters, and subtle grapefruit. Before that theres a slight caramelly sweetness, a little chalky/dusty, with a bitter finish (grapefruity).

UPDATED: JAN 27, 2007 Cask Conditioned, at the Wenlock Arms, London.
Amber/ginger colour, no head and a bit dull looking. Mineral, earthy qualities to the flavour (otherwise known as pond water). Confused malts bounce about with no cohesion. Not a special beer on this occasion. [5,2,5,2,10]
Re-Rated. Cask Conditioned at the Black Jug, Horsham, UK. Straw yellow, with speckled off-white head. Hoppy bitter with slightly more hop flavour than the usual Weltons offering. Served just a few miles from the brewery it was fresher and brighter then previously tried. Rating increased.
3.6 AROMA 7/10 APPEARANCE 3/5 TASTE 8/10 PALATE 4/5 OVERALL 14/20
Cask Conditioned, White Horse, Hedgerley. Gravity dispense (poured by me). Decent beer, nothing special, and nothing that I remember too vividly.
