Hand pumped at Malto, Riccione, Italy. Pours a reddish dark gold, brilliant and clear, with a nice head of very fine white foam. Aroma is toffee, earthy, a little caramel. Body is average, practically without carbonation. Taste is very mildly sweet, with some earthy bitterness providing balance. Final is average in intensity, but with a nice lasting earthy feeling.

Pigs Ear. Cask. Clear amber beer, small bubbly pale tan head. Palate is light and nicely crisp, in good nick. Crisp malts, a little unsweet toffee. Crisp light citrus. Crisp pine. A nice touch of Bullion dark berries on the back end. Crisp and semi dry finish. Nice cask brew.

At the Pembury - Pours a clear amber colour with a small off-white head that settled to a film. The aroma is floral with some fruit and malt notes. A moderately sweet taste, sweet malts, floral hops, pithy oranges, sweet grassy and light herbal notes with a moderate bitterness in the finish.

[Cask at the Waterloo Tap.] A hazy amber pour with a thin white head; orange citrus aroma; explosion of fresh green hops on the tongue, then an orangey malt body; and fresh herby hops adding a spicy bitterness to the finish. Good.

(Cask at Cock Tavern, Hackney, London, 23 Nov 2018) Golden amber colour with frothy, white head. Fruity, hoppy nose with notes of soft malt, peaches, apricots, grass and herbal hops. Malty, fruity taste with peaches, apricots, soft malt, citrus, a touch of resin and a balanced citric/herbal bitterness. Light body, with a slight sweetness. Tasty and refreshing. Quite nice.
