Clear and golden with a frothy white head and a sweet, malty nose. Big up front sweet malty flavour with some floral, bitter hops in the background and citrus notes

7th July 2018, cask half-pint in The Castle Hotel, Bishops Castle (about 100 metres from the brewery. Clear golden pour, thin white head. The nose had equal measures of light maltiness and mild citrus esters, the taste was also a blend of those two ingredients, giving an easy drinking summertime brew that isn't going to test your senses too greatly, pleasant enough though.

Gravity cask @ Shrewsbury Food Festival June 2016. Pours clear gold, white bubbles. Aroma is light lemon fruit. Taste is standard, but pleasant, traditional golden ale territory. Fine.

Had this cask, gravity at Shrewsbury Folk Festival, Saturday 23rd August 2014 Pours clear gold with a sprinkling of white bubbles atop; good clarity. Old fashioned in style, malt forward, safe hoppiness. Not particularly crisp or hoppy or indeed that fruity. The malt dominates. Fine. A6 A4 T5 P3 Ov11 2.9

On cask at Housmans in Church Stretton. Appearance - golden amber with a decent head. Nose - granny Smith apples and a touch of digestive biscuit. Taste - more of the same. Palate - close to medium bodied with a creamy yet tangy texture and a long dry finish. Overall - a solid bitter.
