Cask at CPK, London. Pours clear yellow-gold with a light, white head. Crispy straw nose, some light lemon. Great flavor, very well balanced, some crunchy straw, light toasty grass, some sugar and grain. Light bodied with fine carbonation. Good condition. Light to medium sweet finish with moderately dry lemon. A bit of dry straw, too. Wonderful. So, so drinkable.

Cask at CP&K. It pours golden yellow, with a fluffy white head. The nose is sweet nectarine, honey, floral, leaf and caramel. The taste is straw, hay, resin, grass, citrus pith, raw hop, leaf and honey, with a long dry finish. Light-medium body and soft carbonation. Good stuff.

Cask, gravity at Harbury Beer Festival, Harbury, Warwickshire, 03.09.11 Consumed this alongside the Summer Wine Hercules Black IPA, both great beers, though I slightly preferred the Hercules myself. This poured gold with good clarity, with a slim white rim of bubbles around the edge, touch of grapefruit, nice beer. A7 A5 T7 P4 Ov14 3.8

Chelmsford Winter Beer Festival. Loads of beers shared with ChrisO and Harrisoni - Cheers! Light haze on this gold beer, tiny white head. Mild hops on the snout. Light dry palate. Bitterish grapefruit and orange marmalade. Nice light malt base. Mild bitterness in the aftertaste. Alright!

Cask gravity at Chelmsford BF 2011. Pale orange gold thin white head. Some cheesey hop on aroma. Bit of smoke. Just all over the place with the ingredients. Hops over a watery golden ale. Not balanced as usual
