Handpump at Cask Pub and Kitchen in London. Dark copper clear pour, tick ivory foamy head leaving drafts on the glass. Nose: traces of almond cookie, macerated fruit, bread. Mouth: session soul with much bread crust and a hoppy spicy finish. ---Rated via Beer Buddy for iPhone

On cask at the Shoulder of Mutton, Bradwell. Appearance - hazy golden amber with a decent head. Nose - light cake with some citrus. Taste - citrus buthe mainly fruit biscuits. Palate - light to medium bodied with a creamy texture and a fairly good finish though it could be fresher. Overall - a solid bitter.

Cask @ Dirty Dicks, Halifax. Deep golden-amber with a thick smooth head. There’s some pale malt in its nose, but it’s very low and taste and flavour, just mainly concentrating on being a very crisp session ale.

Cask-conditioned at the Hop Inn, Swindon, 23/10/2014. AMber with with a decent, off-white, head. Cereal malts predominated throughout this beer, with a touch of fruit and moderately bitter finish. Ok.
