Hogan Sampling | 20 Oct 2024 | Good head and lacing. Very moreish first mouthfeel. Slightly fruity with some tropical notes in its flavouring and a resinous aftertaste. | |

Hogan Sampling | 18 Oct 2024 | Certainly the best in condition on this visit. A foaming head and lacing. A very sweet first hit with a pleasantly hoppy and dry mouthfeel. Second sip and almost a punch you would have been proud of in a boxing ring. Very moreish and made me go "Cor!, Cor!" rather than "More!, More!" despite being highly moreish. A pleasantly sweet and fruity aftertaste. | |

Hogan Sampling | 03 Sep 2024 | Just a half sufficed due to its extra gravity. Very sweet on first tasting with tropical fruit flavours but a fine bitter aftertaste. | |

Philip Pirrip | 07 Jul 2024 | Had everything | |
Philip Pirrip | 13 Jun 2024 | A stalwart heavy job, slightly hazy this time | |
Philip Pirrip | 30 May 2024 | Losing some condition on 4th day on | |
Philip Pirrip | 29 May 2024 | Always reliable and full on taste | |
Philip Pirrip | 12 May 2024 | New cask on today. Great but perhaps a teeny bit fresh still | |

Philip Pirrip | 30 Nov 2023 | First rate again | |
Philip Pirrip | 29 Nov 2023 | All a strong single hop (Citra) ale should be | |
Philip Pirrip | 05 Oct 2023 | Good enough to have a second one | |
Philip Pirrip | Not Tried | 24 Sep 2023 | Ran out |
Philip Pirrip | 22 Sep 2023 | I just wish this superb ale had a bit more natural carbonation | |
Philip Pirrip | 20 Aug 2023 | Should not be hazy. Others poured earlier were not, but this was | |
Philip Pirrip | Not Tried | 27 Jul 2023 | Ordered but as last out of cask had lumps in it as shown to me so I chose not to partake. Alas left a pretty lacklustre remaining ale choice on the board |
Philip Pirrip | 26 Jul 2023 | Good enough to have a second one with an otherwise lacklustre selection of ales on the board | |
Philip Pirrip | 29 Jun 2023 | Superb quaff - a difficult ale to muck up I imagine | |
Philip Pirrip | 01 Jun 2023 | OK but same flaws as yesterday | |
Philip Pirrip | 31 May 2023 | Once again a partly flawed Oakham ale. Not the usual clean and crisp taste. This was rather thin and had a slight haze. I wonder if Oakham has a problem or gone unfined with not telling us | |
Philip Pirrip | 05 Mar 2023 | Always a first rater | |

Philip Pirrip | 09 Jan 2022 | A bitterness had developed nearing end of cask. Good balance lost | |
Philip Pirrip | 07 Jan 2022 | Beautifully balanced | |
Philip Pirrip | 06 Jan 2022 | First rate, so well balanced too | |
Philip Pirrip | Not Tried | 19 Oct 2021 | I was poured the last out of cask but it had gone cloudy so replaced without me asking, albeit after I had commented on its look. The penultimate one poured, to the previous customer, was quite clear |
