From cask at Turf Tavern, Oxford, on tour to 22 southern counties with OGJ and EE 03.01.18. Clear golden. White head and lacing. Slightly fruity aroma and taste of pale malt, marmalade and fine hops. Hops are lingering on. An excellent bitter!

Cask at Doctor Duncan's. Pours a clear gold with a white head that lasts throughout the beer and laces. Aroma has earthy grains and leaves with a bit of bread underlying. Flavor has a combination of straw and grains with leaves underlying.

From the tap at FOB, Rimini, Italy. Pours intense gold, fairly transparent with very fine white foam. Aroma is delicate fruity, some honey and caramel. Body is a little light, with practically absent carbonation (it was served pump). Taste is low in sweetness, with sensible bitterness. Finish is short.

Handpump ar Doggett's Coat & Badge in London. Orange bright semi clear pour, ivory little foam so much retention. Nose: roast, hint of oxidation some minor flaws but not bad at all. Almonds too. Mouth: lovely! Watery with soft and silky notes of almonds and a roast and cherry like finish. ---Rated via Beer Buddy for iPhone
