Old Fountain. Cask. Almost clear pale gold beer, tidy white head. Palate is smooth, light and dry with decent fine carbonation. Light pale malt, semi dry. Good floralness and good citric peel hops blend well with the floralness. Bitter orange and grapefruit marmalade. Light finish. Bitter peel linger. Nice.

Cask at Craft Beer Clerkenwell, Poured a clear light amber with a thin broken white head. The aroma is stale malt. The flavour is weak bitter with a watery hop malt palate. A fine session ale but a little bland.

On casks. A satisfying golden ale - blonde with a nice head. Aromas of citrus (lemon to grapefruit) with floral notes. Taste of something resembling custard and grapefruit. Close to medium in body, and very refreshing.
