Cask @ EBF 2008. Orange brown color. Flowery aroma with a hint of caramel. Just a bit thin, but quite well hopped. Flowery and grassy. Some earthiness and caramel in the finish. Well balanced. I enjoyed this one.

Cask handpull at County Hotel JDW Ashford. Brown bitter colour with lasting beige head. It is a tasty enough bitter with just a little wateryness in the body as the only fault. Decent hops and malty fruit on the aroma and some strongish tongue tingling hop on the finish. Its a decnt brown bitter

Gravity cask at the Duke of Wellington, London on 30 July 2010. Clear copper with offwhite foam head and virtually no lacing. Fruity (berries) aroma with mainly berry friuts and malts in main kick, but a developing bitter finish. Light textured mouthfeel. Strangely likeable.
