Diacetyl
Posted by Barry on 2016-11-15 09:22:06
According to their website, they are still brewing in Ringwood.  I seem to remember that they were one of the first 'new' small breweries, back in the 1970s and the guy who founded them, can't recall his name, was one of the leading lights of the cask beer movement.  I haven't tasted their beers for years but they used to be quite good.

I've smelled and tasted rancid butter and it ain't nice!  I've never experienced that taste in any beer that I can recall.
