Bottle from Craft & Berry. Appearance - golden with a slightly off-white head Nose - caramel, in fact honey. Taste - more honey, some wholemeal bread and just a hint of lemon. Palate - creamy, light to medium body. At the very end there's a bit of hop cleaning up. Overall - too sweet to start with though it did grow on me a bit.

Cask @ Waterworks JDW, Sheffield [010916]
Blonde, hazy, dense white head, good lacing
Aroma - Slight sweetness, nothing else
Taste of soft fruits, very light citrus, light pale malts, simple
Palate - Medium body, soft mouthfeel, soft sweet. Finish of soft fruits, slight lemon, tangy fruit
Overall - Easy going, subtle flavours. Nothing to grab the attention though

Cask at CBC SG - London. Pours clear yellow with a slight, white foam top. Big eggy aroma, sulphur, with edges of tangy lemon and hay. Light sweet flavor with some doughy white bread, lemon meringue, light bitter straw. Light bodied with fine carbonation; OK condition. Finishes sweet, with more simple pale malts, hay, lemon candies. Very basic overall.
