WingmanWillis	3.2 Brunswick Skoll Friday, April 12, 2024
jmgreenuk	3.1 Brunswick White Feather Cask at the Pup & Duckling, Solihull. Poured a clear yellow golden colour with a lasting frothy white head. The aroma is malt and yeast. The flavour is moderate to light bitter, with a light, slightly watery, smooth, yeasty, woody hop bitter palate. Medium to light bodied with soft carbonation. Saturday, March 30, 2024
jjsint	3.4 Brunswick Platform 2b Handpull cask at the Old Horse, Leicester. Mid-gold, clear as a bell with a small tight white head. Light and slightly medicinal aroma with citrus hop character in the background. Taste is fresh with a big malty character, light seawater, citrus. Getting more bitter as the initial sip fades but the bitterness never overpowers. Orange liqueur in the aftertaste. Bodt's somewhat watery with soft carbonation but it fits the style. Elegant and overall quite good. Monday, March 25, 2024

harrisoni	3.2 Brunswick Double Vision Cask handpull at Nelson Arms Tonbridge. Clear gold colour lasting white head. American hops in the flavour. I would say just starting to go from the condition.

jrh2254	3.1 Brunswick Triple Hop Brunswick inn derby. Lingering hops as expected from the name ‘triple hops’ but not a hops explosion I was expecting from the name ! Basically a best bitter with hops so session ale at 4%. Tuesday, October 24, 2023

In the mouth it has a repulsive semi-sour / bitter taste, but with some underlying sweetness. Flavour is washing up liquid, dirty rags and vomit. It’s been a long time since I had a beer I disliked as much as this one ! Tuesday, November 1, 2022
ladnewton	3.4 Brunswick The Usual (2nd Brew) Cask at the Gatehouse Tavern, Coventry on 26th October 2022. Copper with shallow off-white foam and full lacing. Mildly malty aroma.

Martinsh	3.2 Brunswick Triple Hop Surprisingly don’t seem to have ever drunk this before – let alone rated it. Anyway, cask at Brunswick, Derby. Pours a golden yellow with minimal white head and good lacing. Not much of sn sroms, just some floral hops. In the mouth the floral hops are more prominent along with ctirs, tangerine, and some underlying caramel. Overall it is slightly sweet. Finish is dry with some sticky citrus.

Martinsh	2.6 Brunswick White Feather Well my notes insist that I drank this – but I have absolutely no recollection of having done so ! Cask at Brunswick, Derby. Pours a hazy pale straw with a small off-white head. Some sweetness with traces of citrus in the nose. Pretty much the same in the mouth with lemongrass and grapefruit also featuring. A little bitterness in the finish. To summarise, my notes say “OK” – but obviously it was forgettable ! Sunday, July 3, 2022
s3quin	2.8 Brunswick Caramild Saturday, June 4, 2022
jjsint	3.3 Brunswick Caramild Handpull cask at the Old Horse, Leicester. Golden brown and clear with a thin off-white head. Very light aroma, some dusting of chocolate malt but that is about it. Lovely taste though: sweet and malt-led with some Ovaltine followed by gently bitter hops in the finish. Some treacle and golden syrup in the aftertaste. Light body with soft carbonation. Not much to it but it's a mild innit so that's kind of the point. I enjoyed it. Thursday, May 5, 2022
Cheeseboard	3.4 Brunswick Black Sabbath Cask at the Brunswick Inn, Derby. Pours black with a tan cap. Aroma: roasted malts, chocolate, toffee. Taste: light to moderate sweet & bitter, semi-dry, roasted malts, dark chocolate, liquorice hints, charr, Light body with soft carbonation. Nice flavours but could do with a tad more body. Saturday, March 5, 2022
Martinsh	3.2 Brunswick Rocket Cask at the brewery. Pours a pale gold with minimal white head. There’s marmalade and lemongrass in the aroma, plus some hints of malts. In the mouth it is sharp and tangy but with an overall juicy sweetness. Flavour starts off with tangerine and melon but quickly progresses to citrus and traditional hops, These become quite dominant in the finish. Not quite sure what to make of this one – but in the end I think the good features outweighed the bad. Definitely an IPA not a pale (maybe a Session IPA?) Sunday, February 27, 2022
