jackl	2.6 Arkwrights Open All Hours Cask @ The Jolly Crispin during the Ratebeer Black Country Bash. The pour’s amber with a small head. The nose is honey, lemon, a touch of grass. The taste is herbal hops, breakfast tea. A bit of cinnamon. Unpleasant papery finish. Light body, fine carbonation. Overall, underwhelming. Friday, August 9, 2013
McNeillR	2.7 Arkwrights Open All Hours Pale stagnant golden body, whimper of a head non existent after a few sips. Nose is arse crack scrubbed with bread crumbs. Taste is fairly clean, weirdly sweet Thai edge in a middle of the road effort, crisp and brisk bitter finish. Struggled to finish it after the minging nose took over a few sips in. *Cask, Malt and Hops, Leith, Edinburgh* Saturday, August 3, 2013
BlackHaddock	2.7 Arkwrights Open All Hours Hand-pulled half-pint in the Jolly Crispin, on the RB Black Country Bus trip, 6th July 2013. Golden with a thin light coloured head. Weak nose of baked malts and fruit orchards. Tasted a bit bready with traces of sweetness drowned out by a final fling of hop fruitiness. Not the best beer of the day! Thursday, July 25, 2013

BeerCast_Rich	2.9 Arkwrights Original [cask, Cloisters Bar, Edinburgh] Took a punt on this as it’s the first time I’ve seen a beer from my home town in my Edinburgh local. Slightly hazy amber, strange musty bran fibre aroma. Bready, wheaty bran flavour. Lots of cardboard. Not great. Shame [14042913] Sunday, April 14, 2013
imdownthepub	3 Arkwrights Snow Leopard Cask conditioned at The Rose & Crown, Charlbury, Oxon. Amber with white head. Perfumed, flowery beer with a background butterscotch flavour, there is a twangy note about it. Just about ok. Thursday, March 7, 2013
maeib	3.1 Arkwrights Snow Leopard Cask conditioned handpump Locomotive Wellingborough 18/02/13. A slightly hazy golden beer with a whitish bubbly head. Fruity notes with some toffee in the nose.

BlackHaddock	2.1 Arkwrights F'tang-F'tang Ole Biscuit Barrel”. Hand-pulled pint in The Crown Inn, Oakengates Shropshire on 22 Dec 2012. Light amber body with a white foaming head. Yeast and hoppy nose and taste: little more than an average home brew feel to the whole thing. The name sold me the beer, but one was more than enough. Sunday, December 30, 2012
BlackHaddock	3.3 Arkwrights Original Hand pulled pint in The Crown Inn, Oakengates on 5th Sep 2012. Good amber body with a full head of white bubbles that produced some heavy lacing. Floral hop nose and taste with a sharp, tangy bite from the start: a fine session ale. Thursday, September 6, 2012

downender	3 Arkwrights Run Of The Mill On gravity at the Great Welsh Beer & Cider Festival 10/06/10. Amber coloured with a slight, off-white head. My notes for this one are nearly non-existent.
