Cask half pint at JDW, Victoria Station, London. ABV was 4.3%. Copper colour, moderate white head. Smooth and malty aroma and flavour, not sweet, biscuity. No off-flavours, but not very interesting.

This seasonal cask ale (November) was taken at a local pub on 29th Nov 2011, hand pulled into a UK pint sleeve.
Amber/golden hue to the body with a cream coloured frothy head sat on top, the sparkler at the end of the swan’s neck ensuring the beer took a while to settle in the glass (and give that frothy crown).
The aroma was more malt than hop, roasted/toasted malts to be precise, nuts too.
Semi-sweet malty flavour, biscuity/bready feel to the taste; smooth and easy to drink. A dry bitterness arrives towards the end of each sip, just to remind you this is a UK Bitter not a creamy, sweet brew.

This beer derives its name from the crown of a tall-tale-telling competition - i.e. The World's Biggest Liar - taking place at The Bridge Inn, Santon Bridge, in the Lake District. Coming in a 500ml slim brown bottle, filtered and pasteurised. BB 13/08/2008, served cool in a straight imperial pint glass.
A: pale copper-ish & bright in colour, topped with a fluffy/spongey off-white head leaving dirty lacing; moderate & constant in carbonation.
S: a twang of hop underlines the mildly roasty & toasty maltiness, nuts, bitter chocolates, dried fruits, and a rather focused flow of malt syrup.
T: the rich but light-bodied foretaste consists of toffee's bitter edge, roasted malts, nut skins, orange-peel chocolates, and marinated sweet plums... then turning quite dry in its satisfying but not OTT tea-leafy bitterness, while the soothing aroma of coffee-flavoured toffee with a touch of dried plums simply refuses to budge.
M&D: if only the lively mouthfeel were much less fizzy, this ale could drink absolutely smooth and satisfying... and more-ish, esp. given the good depth of bitterness from both hops and roasted malts. Overall, this is a medium-bodied, bitter-sweet malty and yet well-matured brew with a generous input from hops. I await to try the cask version!
