on tap at the beerfestival in Cologne. Pressure-Served quite cool. Smooth, crisp-clear, fresh with grainy-smooth hints. Nice Pale Ale with a bit more flavour :) Fruity-smooth! 10/12/9/10

Cask at the Clachan, Nicholson’s - London. Pours er gold with a fine, creamy white head. The nose holds light biscuity pale malts and hints of lemon rind. Light to medium sweet flavor with some white bread, grains, lemon and hay. Light to medium bodied with fine carbonation. Moderate butterness to finish, some grain husks, rindy lemon, pale bread. So so.

Cask at the Feathers, St James Pk, 03/10/13. Murky orange with a moderately sized off white head. Nose is toasted malts, orange, light hop presence, touch of grapefruit. Taste comprises citrus fruit, toasted malts, light strains of caramel, orange pith. Medium bodied, soft carbonation, light hop bitterness in the finish. So so, I don’t think this was in the best condition, certainly judgeing by the appearance, although it still drank better than certain other cask beers I’ve had recently!

Hoop & Grapes. Cask. Light haze on this gold beer, tidy white head. Palate is pleasantly crisp in that way only good cask condition can be. The malt is smooth and provides just a little sweetness. The promised US hops are here. Good citric bite with orange, orange peel and lesser lemon and grapefruit. Finishes with a mild to medium bitterness. The beer comes together very well. It’s well balanced for the style and the hops keep you coming back for another sip without burning you out. Very drinkable indeed and I had 4 pints of this cracking little beer.

Cask at the Haymarket. Cask at Haymarket Bar. Appearance - pale golden with a nice creamy head. Nose - grapefruit and pine Taste - a bit more maltiness but more of the citrus (maybe lemon this time) and pine. Palate - close to medium bodied with a creamy yet zingy texture and a clean refreshing finish. Overall - good ale.

Cask at Haymarket Bar. Pours pale gold with a thick, creamy head. Good lacing. Citrus and pine as you’d expect, some bread malt and hay too. Decent balance of sweet and bitter, and easy drinking. Nice pint.
