Cask-conditioned at the Portcullis, Clifton, Bristol 11/12/10. Golden in colour with a slight white head. Aroma of floral hops with a touch of tropical fruit. Flavour of sweet, slightly creamy malts, pineapple and citrus hops, with a decent dry finish. Very good.

Cask, handpump at FFTMC, Oxford 11.12.10 Pours golden in colour, good clarity, nice white head. The aroma is really quite perfumey, floral but heavily scented, not sure I can describe anymore than that though. Taste is sweet, hoppy, decent maltiness, nothing too exciting to report on but a slight buzzy bitterness trying to come through, however I quite liked this. A6 A4 T7 P4 Ov14 3.5

Cask, Ship and Mitre, Liverpool. Ruddy copper colour with a medium off white head. Really nice fragrant hop and fruity aroma. Relatively sweet flavour with a solid malt backbone and some nice hoppage. Smooth, with medium body. Very drinkable and a pretty darn tasty effort. Definitely one of the better English breweries.
