Beer Rocks Proud of Pubs Summer Ale
I'm rating summer rocks from wetherspoons. Hoppy aroma. Slightly cloudy and dark amber appearance. Leaves a bit of another aftertaste. ---Rated via Beer Buddy for iPhone

(Cask): Pale gold in colour, white head. Aroma of sherbert and fruit. Flavour is a watery, tacky sweet fruit notes dominate. Slight pale malt and grass with a lingering artificial sweetner taste. Not great.

Beer Rocks Lords
[Cask at Dereham’s Inn, High Wycombe] Cloudy amber-gold with a slight fizz and lumpy sediment. Light grassy lemon flavour with a little butter. Thin with a moderate dry bitterness. Frankly, it’s a bit crap and the lumps are offputting - given that all the other beers in this GBG-listed pub were in good condition, I don’t think the issues were down to handling by the pub, either!

Dales Ales Golden Daffodil
Cask at CPK. Pours a clear, rich yellow with a foamy, white head. Holds a floral, grassy aroma, wet with some dough. Flavor is lightly sweet with a pronounced dough character, some flowery and herbal bitterness, some grass, very light lemon citrus. Light bodied with quite fine carbonation. Some weedy hops in the finish, faint citrus and dough, some grass. Very drinkable if not outstanding.

Cask handpull at The Berry, Walmer. Dark brown colour wiht lasting beige head. Now this I do like. Good proper brown bitter with good roasty notes. It’s a malty toasty beer. Really rather good. Can;t complain about the beer quality or condition at this pub. Definitely decent. OK.

Dales Ales Old Chestnut
Cask at Wellington Arms, Bedford. Amber brown with a small off white head. Earthy malt aroma, tending towards chocolate. Taste is nutty, earthy, and solid, full of the autumnal promise of compost and leaf mould. Mid bitter finish. Good, but why do they have to misrepresent this beer as the produce of the fictitious ’Dales Ales’?

A Mes rate: Cask at the Falcon in Clapham.
Dark copper with no head at all. Almost a two if I’m honest. Sweet and fruity on the nose with some very pleasant hints of caramel and vanilla. The flavour is more of the same but let down greatly by an obvious hit of apple. Underbrewed or not quite ready or something. Whatever, it smells good, tastes not so.
