gary07734 (165), Tyne & Wear, England Sep 28, 2008 Decent creamy pour, thick mouthfeel like double cream, taste is bitter and rather watery, nothing much else to speak of. Poor. DruncanVeasey (1720), No. 46, Leicestershire, Germany Sep 20, 2008 Erm, cask, Ashby Sports Club, Knickersby. Watery toffee, hop mustiness, caramel and marzipan aroma. wet, slightly dank nut water, currant, cask wood, imaginary choc, almost milky coffee. Distant and vicarious like someone else in an adjoining room is enjoying a really decent pint of bitter, whilst youre drinking this. Doesnt do much, but what it does it does OK. harrisoni (5331), Ashford, Kent, England Aug 2, 2007 Cask handpull at Thomas Ingoldsby, JDW, Canterbury. Amber with lasting beige head. Amazed to see this. Some caramel on aroma. OK in mouth. Bland but in good condition. But does have a hoppy tingle on end, not absolutely awful, but very bland. kwoeltje (1220), Manchester, Missouri, USA Jul 7, 2007 (cask - King’s Head Salisbury) slightly hazy amber with very small head. Very faint aroma. Flavor was malt and some hops. Ungstrup (11342), Frederiksberg, Denmark Aug 6, 2006 [Cask at Wetherspoon’s in Stanstedt Airport as Worthington’s Cask Ale] An amber beer with a slight haze under a thin beige head. The aroma is sweet with notes of caramel and malt. The mouthfeel is very smooth and the flavor is sweet malty with notes of nuts and caramel. OK, but nothing special.
