Draft at the Great British Beer Festival 2014, Day 1 - London. Pours clear, pale yellow with a bubbly white head. Nice beer, with biscuity pale malts, lemony hops. Medium bodied with fine carbonation. Moderately sweet on the finish with sugary pale bread, a bit of bitter hay. Very simple but not offensive.

Cask at GBBF ’14, day 1, 12/08/14. Pale golden with moderate off white spotting. Nose is yeasty, straw, bread pangs, lemon rind. Taste comprises much the same. Medium bodied, moderate carbonation, semi drying close with a bitter linger. So so, doesn’t really do enough to justify its 5%!

Cask-conditioned at the Plough, Worcester, 22/3/2014. Deep gold with a decent, off-white head. Marmalade and honey sweetness, with some solid, cereal malts and a moderately bitter finish. Good.
