A mellow low hop ale with plenty of biscuit and graham cracker flavour. Not big, not bold, but a soft sipping session ale. Decent enough for a casual afternoon.

(2017 London) 1 Pint Cask @ Queens Arms (Kensington). Clear amber, tanned head, mocha. Caramel, toffee sugar, butterscots sweet UK malts nose, very nice. Taste is caramel, toffee, sweet round UK malts, candy, biscuit, caramel. Lovely round malty cask body. Very neat straightforward sweet malts, surprisingly lovely. Scores are quite low on here but I liked it a lot.

Cask at the Counting House. A true English session bitter and I had forgotten just how good this beer can be. A good flavour of biscuit malt, perfectly balanced by some bitter hops. It looked great in the glass and perfectly complemented the pie & chips and catch-up with a good friend over lunch. This was perfectly kept and served and, in my opinion, a brilliant expression of how good a proper English bitter can be. Flavoursome, appealing texture, low abv, great to look at and a pleasure to drink.
