From cask at Pie & Ale, Manchester, 29.11.17. Clear amber golden. Dense and persistent head and lacing. Moderate aroma, with pale malt and the finest of English hops. Supoerb taste of pale malt, English hops, succade and a small hint of caramel. Smooth mouthfeel. An excellent bitter with superb quaffability!

Cask at the Lord Byron Inn, Cambridge. Poured clear bright pale amber with a small off-white head. Aroma of malt, caramel, hop, light citrus and flowers. Moderate sweetness, quite light bitterness. Moderate body, slight oily texture, soft to fine carbonation. Much better from cask than bottled.

The beer of Bedford! Of course it isn’t really an IPA but rather a delectable sesh bitter. A winey/cidery aroma with an astringent full hoppy taste. Hops follow through on the palate.

Draught at the Priory Centre, St Neots. Golden brown and very cloudy, huge huge head. A bit of malt but not much aroma. Tastes slightly reminiscent of beer... Sweet with hints of malt, but sour finish. A once decent beer subjected to multiple stages of bastardisation. Distinctive regional flavour my ass.
