Cask at the Willow Walk, Victoria, 15/04/13. Lightly hazed golden with a thin frothy white head. Nose is caramel, citurs, pretty thin all told. Taste carries more depth with caramel malt, sugars, orange marmalade and rather surprisingly a trace of booze. Medium body with a bit of oomph, moderate carbonation, dry in the finish with bitter notes. Ok.

Cask at The Punch Bowl in York. Pours heavy amber with a creamy beige head. Aroma of fruit and caramel. Med body. Flavor is towards grapefruit rind with a little light stone fruit. It’s very tasty and finishes firmly on the bitter side.
