A beer with a flowerly, hoppy and fruity nose, although malt is never far away. Fruity hop is evident in the taste and there is a consistent bitterness.

Hand-pulled pint in ’Jaspers’ during a CAMRA pub crawl around Shifnal, Shropshire on 14th Dec 13. Refreshing but fairly bland ’cooking bitter’ (as my father calls bog standard bitters): leaning towards orange from golden amber in colour with a thin white head. Slight aroma of light malts with a fruity hint. The taste was also of light malts and again with a mild fruit note or two: nothing powerful or strong though, this is an uncomplicated brew with few if any noticeable attributes worthy of mentioning.

[i] Cask at the Red Lion, Northmoor, Oxon, leg three of the Thames Tipple [/i]Poured mid amber, some sweetness on the nose but little else. The taste was quite plain, reasonable bitterness underpinned with some sweet malts [/i]
