edsspoon (788) - Nottinghamshire, ENGLAND - SEP 30, 2015
Keg - deep mahogany with a foamy off white head. Okay retention, light lacing. Aroma of white wine vinegar, plum, caramel, oak and some dust. Taste of oak, caramel, notes of cocoa, light grassy hop and some pine to finish with a faint bitterness. Medium to dense body, light carbonation, grainy mouthfeel.

DruncanVeasey (7768) - NUNEATON, 3rd, Warwickshire, ENGLAND - AUG 20, 2015
500ml. Murky ruby with a well retained pinkish collar. Nose of ripe nectarines, cinder toffee spread with strawberry jam, coffee bottoms. Good lean red berry, gritty coffee, pollen-speckled flavour drying with tonic and grapefruit. Maybe some spearmint and aniseed in the blender. Fermented strawberry. Decent hoppy red whatever it is.

Leighton (14836) - London, Greater London, ENGLAND - AUG 9, 2015
Bottle at home in London - picked up from an Oddbins (London Bridge, perhaps?). Pours mostly clear amber-gold with a large, frothy off-white head that settles into a cream. The aroma holds toasted grains, caramel and lightly tangy citrus fruits. Light-medium sweet flavor with lightly toasted, bready malts, some caramel, a bit of orange, soft pine, berries. Low bitterness. Light bodied with average to lively, massaging carbonation. Pretty smooth on the finish, with more prominent bready malt character, light piney spice, citrus, peach, orange, creamy caramel. The more I drink of this beer the more I like it. Fun stuff.
