Cask at Queen Inn, Winchester. Clear gold. Frothy foamy white head. Aroma has spice, hay, malta... a berry edge. Flavourwise it's quite bitter with a sour edge. Mirrors the aroma with added quinine. Light-medium bodied. Slick. Soft carbonation. Long dry slightly astringent finish. Nice enough without being an inspired or original beer.

Ty Grumbo. Nice hoppy, fruity, golden ale. I love the dryness in this one. Very good body for 4% ABV, not watery at all. I wish that I could get similar drinking beer for reasonable price locally...

Bottle. A dark golden coloured pour with a large bubbly white head on top. Hoppy, citrus, floral aroma and taste. Pretty bland golden ale but OK on a hot day I guess.
