Cask at Turf Tavern, Oxford, on Ratebeer Oxford Day ’08. SilkTork asked them if this was a rebadge of another White Horse Beer and was told it wasn’t. I wondered whether it might be Village Idiot, another 4.1% golden ale, however I’m fairly certain it isn’t, as it’s less bitter. Soapy hop aroma, sweet taste and quite low bitterness. Not bad.

A Mes rate: Cask at the Turf Tavern, Oxford during the RB pub crawl.
Nice gold colour with a decent white head and pretty good condition. Straight forward dusty and citric hoppage with some soapy notes and a pleasing bitter and floral finish. Quite tasty.
