Beer #8 at Dartford Beer Festival, with SilkTork and Duff. The second beer from the new Westerham brewery and this one wasn’t ready either. Judging from IDTP’s rating that is a real shame. It was a nice pale bronze colour. Beyond that, there’s not much more I can say. Must re-rate this if the opportunity arises. Cask (gravity dispense).

UPDATED: JAN 1, 2006 July, 2004.Dartford Fest. Gravity. This was a replacement for the green British Bulldog. Sadly it was also green. Apple notes everywhere. Beyond the apples it came over as an average dry session bitter. [2.7]
Dec, 2005.<a href=http://www.beerintheevening.com/pubs/s/26/269 Intent, Rochester. Mmmm. Fresh and wonderful. Good hoppy session bitter, crammed with fresh flavours. The hops are robust and delightful, and the malt is juicy, sweet and very full. Very impressive for a 3.8% beer. Glad to have another crack at this in good condition. [4.3]
