Taste comprises red berry fruit, sharp blackcurrant, more rhubarb, spice, straw. Medium bodied, fine carbonation, semi drying close. Ok stuff, tangy berry refreshment in the close.

Craft 100 at Craft Clapham. Cask. Cloudy gold beer, fair size bubbly white head. Palate is light and slightly crispy. Tangy wheaty malts. A light fruity tang ensues. Blackcurrant? Maybe a little in the light semi dry finish.

Cask at Craft 100 2014. It pours cloudy pale gold with a small white head. The nose is soft, doughy, wheat, grass and light fruitiness. The taste is smooth, doughy, wood, berry, toasty grain and a touch of citrus with a short finish. Medium body and fine carbonation. Pretty basic stuff. Not much blackcurrant going on...

Cask (Craft Beer Co, Clapham) - Hazy amber in colour. Blackcurrant, yoghurt and peach in the aroma. Fruity and slightly tangy taste with lemon, peach and a hint of blackcurrant. The blackcurrant is fairly subtle. Refreshing.

Hazy golden colour. Aroma is fruity, zesty, hoppy. Flavour has a generic fruity sweetness and a fair whack of hop. Not particularly blackcurranty or wheaty.
