Cask handpull at Market Porter, Borough Market. Gold/copper with thin beige head. Watery bitter. Sometimes I despair of this pub and the condition of some of the beer. Some rose petal fruit, some stingy hop on end. Rose petal fruit is good. Perfumey.

[Cask at Stockholm Beer Festival 2003] The nose is slightly hoppy. The color is orange and it has a bubbly head. The flavor is slightly sweet with malt accents and orange notes. It ends on an OK grassy hoppyness. Nothing special.

Fruity, pithy, quite hoppy. The lads at the booth at the Stockholm Beer & Whiskey Festival were pretty fired up to have somebody order a 'half of their best'.

Deep golden. Light bodied, sweetish with some late bitterness. An average bitter.
