500 ml bottle. Pours copper with almost no head. Aroma of cereal and light citrus. Crisp. Flavors of malt and bread with a bit of orange and brown sugar. Quite nice.

(Cask at Angleterre, 20120511) The beer poured deep golden and clear. Its head was small, dense and long lasting. Aroma had hops, sweetness and malts. Palate was medium bodied with low carbonation. Flavours were hops, sweetness, herbalness, grain, malts, citricness and bitterness. Aftertaste was malty and bitter. The grainy part in the taste was a bit disturbing but otherwise a good middle of the road ale.

There is a slight fruity sourness to its bitterness, also with some hoppiness.

Gravity cask @ In De Wildeman. Golden color, almost completely clear. Aroma’s are sweet, fruity, sweet fruit, perfume-y, malty/grainy. Flavor is grainy, not sweet. Light body, almost no carbonation. Finishes with more grain and eventually a short firm bitterness. Nice!

On tap somewhere - maybe Market Porter. Light golden ale. There is just enough hops to keep it intertesting.

50cl bottle from Waitrose. Amber with a rapidly fading white head; fruity malt aroma; light delicate honey and caramel flavours with some biscuit; and a lightly citrus touch to a sweet honeyed finish. Very drinkable.

Bottle. Amber beer with a cream colored head. Fruity, malt aroma. Fruity, malt, and light honey flavor with some floral notes. Medium-light bodied. Floral tones, fruit, and malt linger.

500ml bottle shared with friends, outdoor seating at The Cove in Covent Garden. Clear amber body with a small, white head. Mildly fruity to the nose. Citrus fruits in flavour on a pale malty foundation. Brief bitter finish. Rounded mouthfeel. Refreshing summer feeling (London, 03.08.2009).
