Cask @ Cricketers, Bedford. Mid-gold, clear as a bell. Bit of white head, heavy lacing. Aroma is not particularly strong: sweet flowery hops. Taste is sweet throughout with a slightly more bitter turn right at the finish. Refreshing. Palette is fuller than most ales of this ABV.

1 Pint Cask @ the Hop Polles – this was retardedly expensive as opposed to their deserts which were quite cheep. Last one for the road…. I assume that this is the version that I had, if I remember correctly ABV matches. Pours a bright burned caramel with a very creamy, cask lacing head. Smell is mellow floral, light all the way with light hops, caramel and biscuit malts, toffee, light herbs. Taste is lightly bitter herbal, sticky, caramel, toffee, Tesco value pudding, grass, light herb, near aluminium touch. Mouthfeel is like a cross between nitro & cask. Bit bull but certainly not non-agreeable.
