UPDATED: APR 27, 2022 Cask at FOB, Rimini, Italy. Pours fairly opaque, light brown, with mixed grain foam, fine to gross. Aroma is malty, earthy, some caramel and honey too. Body is slightly thin, with practically no carbonation. Taste is moderate sweet, with some feeling of crumbled biscuit.

UPDATED: APR 13, 2022 # 2849; 4/2022. Earthy, spicy and citrus aroma, toffee. Cloudy amber body, thick persistant lacing creamy off-white head. Earthy, citrus, biscuit, toffee, fruits. Good ESB. Pint, hand-pulled, pub, Lincoln (Lincolnshire, England).

UPDATED: MAR 9, 2022 At me spoons. Pint, it’s on all the time. Greene King grumble grumble, but hey they have done well with this old timer, long lasting, faithful servant of the old pub world. Soft spot for it, for sure. Thick, malty, toffee, caramel, cloying. Sticky toffee pudding in a glass. Fantastically amber in colour and very singular. It’s bordering on unnaturally sweet, but just pulls back in time into the malt lane. It’s just fine. Phew. Hint of rum? Yes. A good pub pint

UPDATED: DEC 5, 2021 Auld hoose . Nb after Daniel bought us the wine in No12 Nice easy sipping pub beer. Caramel. Malt. Enjoyed .

UPDATED: NOV 19, 2021 Cask pint in Wetherspoons at Gatwick. Crystal clear amber with a solid one-finger off-white foam. Inviting looking pint. Nose is bread and toffee. Flavour is medium malty sweetness, trace of dark fruit bitterness. Foamy, heavy mouthfeel, little aftertaste. A grand pint to slug back when waiting for a flight.

UPDATED: JAN 24, 2022 From Wetherspoons Durham. Mostly a syrupy toffee malt and plum taste, with some dried fruit. Not as nutty and dry as the bottled version, but pleasant.

UPDATED: SEP 3, 2021 Toffee sweetness with a some hops. Both on the sweet and hoppy end of an ale. Not that well balanced and too sweet generally. Decent.

UPDATED: JUL 29, 2021 Caramel malt aroma, clear amber color, taste is so sugary, feels like one kilogram of caramel fudge was melted in a single pint, just awful.

UPDATED: MAY 22, 2021 Half pint at The Reservoir, Earlswood, Solihull. Clear amber with nice consistent top. Its malty, very smooth with a nice nuttiness to it, and a hint of fruity hop. Good balance between sweet and bitter. Simple but effective.

UPDATED: OCT 8, 2021 Pint on cask at the Hain Line JDW. I can't believe I've not ticked this. Medium creamy white head clear light Amber pour. Light bitterness.
