Tasted by a half-pint and served on gravity at the "Town Mill", a Wadworth's pub situated in a real (roughly) four-hundred-year-old town-mill (water mill) in the centre of Andover. The cask was one of around 16 served during the pub's mini-beerfestival in late summer 2008.

A: pours a translucent bright amber colour, with static carbonation and no signs of a beer head (not a problem for a gravity-dispensed real ale).
S: sour-sweet malty with mixed fruitiness like plum-flesh, oxidised apples, a little strawberry even. Quite plain overall and not very fresh.
T: a sour date-tea like flavour comes with a little spicy hoppiness and chewy bitter aftertaste. Semi-biscuity aftertaste and a little herbs, but overall very poorly-executed, and the sour edge is slightly OTT.
M&D: flat-textured and weirdly smooth, off-balance on the flavour profile. I think the cask is almost off or not fresh anyway. To do it justice I'll have to try it again, but here're my notes of this encounter anyway.
