Cask at the Monks Retreat (JDW), Reading. Amber with a dense off-white head; fruity bitterness with some honey; pleasant bitter finish. Rather average.

50cl bottle from Sainsburys. Very similar, with a good fresh bitterness that’s unusual in a bottled beer.

(Cask at GBBF, London, 4 Aug) Colour is golden yellow with a foamy white head, leaving lots of lacing. Nose is fruity with citrus, apricots and a nice earthy and dusty hop aroma. Taste is fruity with citrus (grapefruit, mandarin) and a balanced, nice, bitter finish with earthy hops. Rather complex and nice.

Cask@Out of the Vaults, Leicester. Lightly golden beer with a light head. The aroma is mildy dry, and the flavour is mildly weak with a pale ale like bitterness. Overall a plain beer.

[Cask at GBBF 2005] An orange-brown beer with a thin white head. The aroma is sweet with light notes of caramel and light dusty hoppy notes. The flavor has light notes of caramel, leading to a dry bitter end.
