Draft - Caramel and light grains. Clear copper with a nice white head. Twig, caramel and a grainy bitter finish. Decent, but nothing interesting.

On tap. Pours a clear copper with moderate head. Aromas of bright grassy/fruity hops and bready/caramel malts. Flavors are similar and clean. ESB? I don’t know, but a nice beer.

Draught at Big River, Richmond
Hazy amber color with compact head. Mellow malty Pale Ale of British genealogy, not yet a Bitter; good bitterness level with hints of old world hops, but the West Coast hops are not evident.
Clean and flawless. Could go well with meaty food and would please who doesn’t look for west coast hops.

On tap at St. Augustine's, pours a hazy dark golden orange with a medium beige head. Aroma brings out both English and American hops, with perhaps the American dry hops winning out. Flavour matches this exactly, starting out with robust English hops, a biscuity malt backing and ending on bitter west coast hops. Really nice blend of hops that complement. Great stuff.
