Dark amber beer with a white head and faint fruity aroma. Flavour is a bit hoppy, a touch of fruit. It’s slightly sickly and I’m not convinced it’s especially well kept in here but it’s okay.

Cask at the Woodmans Rest, Solihull. Poured a clear medium amber with a frothy white head. The aroma is light hop malt. The flavour is moderate bitter with a citrus hop bitter palate. Medium bodied with soft carbobation. Served fairly warm. A fine session ale.

Cask at Les Douvres, St. Martin, GY. Smooth and fresh beginning. Slightly bitter-typical mainpart, malt in a nice balance to the bitterness. Nice ale aroma. Quite dry but still highly drinkable. The aftertaste is smooth, bitter-malty with a nice dry ale-typical finish! Nice Beer!!
