Clear golden with tiny white. Not much hits the nose though mild fruity notes comes through. Sweet fruity flight wit hoppy notes to finish it off bitter.

Cask, Hoopers, East Dulwich. Darkish golden colour with a very thin white head. Aroma was a sourish peach affair. Some malt in the flavour. Very watery and generally pretty naff.

Dark amber body topped by a thin foamy head, white bubbles and nice laceworks on the glass. Light sweety malt in aroma. Blend of sweet malts and hop bitterness in flavour. Alright (enjoyed in relaxing surroundings at The Lamb & Flag, Oxford 15.03.2008).

(Cask at Akkurat, Stockholm) Amber colour with frothy off-white head. Malty nose with notes of toffee, dark fruit and dusty hops. Malty taste with toffee, dusty hops, a hint of sewgae and wild berries. Fairly thin body. Decent, but rather boring.

Cask at the Red Lion or was it the White Lion? anyway it was in Lechlade Gloucestershire 09-06-07. Copper coloured with little aroma of note, tasted quite smooth and despite the obvious fruit and hops tasted this came across as being just a bit creamy and soft in the mouthfeel to me.
