Bottle at home, thanks to my mate Bill for this ... Good copper colour... light fruit nose ... Decent enough main beer , little balanced fruit malt but its too drying bitter in linger for me... decent enough session ale.

Cask handpull at the Wetherspoons in Kingston. Reddish amber colour. Hogs Back yeasty aroma, plenty of deep red berry fruit in mouth and then harsh, but balanced brambly hedgerow hop finish that lasted for a good 5 minutes in the mouth. Malts are hedgerow and berry fruits that are juicy and mix well with this harsh hop finish.

Cask at the Monks Retreat (JDW), Reading. Chstnut with a deep creamy beige head; citrus aromas; fruity and sharp with a predominantly orange flavour, but smooth and creamy and easy to drink; leaves a lingering bitterness.
