Cask at the Wellington Hotel, Birmingham on 28th December 2013. Hazy copper with thin cream-coloured film and plenty of lacing. Yeasty and malty aromas. Touch of soapiness. Leafy hops, notes of sage and lemon in-mouth. Citric finish, slightly musty in an interesting rather than unpleasant sense. Generally tangy. Light in body and mouthfeel.

Bottle from Stirchley Wines, Birmingham. Poured a clear copper with a frothy white head. The aroma is a little malty, but weak. The flavour is medium to strong bitter, a little metallic, some malt and the bitterness hangs around into the aftertaste. A great session ale.

Hand pulled pint at the worst Wetherspoons I know (under where the Central Library, Birmingham used to be). Lunchtime on Saturday 7th July 2012. The beer poured a deep amber colour with an off-white head of foam sat proudly on top. Good thick lacing clung to the glass as the beer level fell after each gulp. Malts rule the roost in this semi-sweet smelling and tasting brew which I downed very quickly but had to move on, or i’d have had another and another etc, etc.
