Ian		11 Feb 2009	Very dark brown, thin disappearing dark beige head. Made with a Beglian yeast clearly. Bit sour, bit too banana ester. Not my kinda thing. Bit too sweet. Good attempt, but poorish execution. The esters and sweetness are almost unpleasant.

The White Horse, Parsons Green, Greater London

Ian		23 Aug 2008	Dark brown, thin beige head. Tastes as though it's brewed with a Belgian yeast. Very much in the Belgian dubbel style. Again like the Twickenham/Struise porter, just a bit watery in mouth. It's alright, quite tasty, decent malts. Does a decent impression.
