Cask. Light amber color, almost white foam. Malt aroma, very light, a little yeast, toast, butter, light fruitiness. Taste: malty, caramel slightly, light earthy bitterness, a bit of jam on toast.

Tap at the Brewery Tap, Tullamore. Not myxh aroma. Deep golden colour. Confused taste - lemonade flavours coming off citra but malt too. Slight nitro feel. Confused BUT a grower

Dark copper colour with lasting creamy head. Aroma and flavour have mild fruity hop notes. More sweet malts. Not bad.

Can from the Co-Op, Nairn. Clear amber body with a thin head that fades. Low carbonation. No lacing. Aroma of caramel, crystal and lemon. Flavour of toffee, pine and Lockets. Medium body with an oily texture. Soft fizz. Sweet but with enough of a hoppy kick to provide the balance.

Pours a clear copper color from the can. Aroma is a mix of caramel and grapefruit. Taste is bittersweet, bitter at the end with a tart note that lingers. Body is surprisingly light, texture somewhat watery and seems oddly out of place given the rather robust flavors. Grew flat rather quickly. Okay.

Cask in Maynooth, Irish backlog. Ambrée sur col blanc-cassé crémeux. Arôme est finement houblonné, malt fin caramel avec un bouquet modéré de biscuité, impression de feuille sèche et cône houblon en rétro-nasal. Palais est léger maintenant un côté biscuité, amertume noble sur léger fleuri. Effervescence moyenne avec un fini assez plaisant et un effet des plus classique anglais pour cette IPA. Malt anglais perceptible ajoutant une pointe grillée sur la fin.
