Cask at The Punch Bowl in York. Pours light translucent gold with a creamy white head. Aroma is too faint for me. Med body. Flavor is a little like cooked barley with some spicy hop. Very different in a noticeable way. Good session ale. I’m starting to really like it.

Cask, one-third pint at The Richard John Blackler (JDW) . Filmy layer to an unclear, yellow-gold body. Spotty lacing to the upper level of the glass. Leafy hops to the nose. Fruity taste with lemony hops to the fore. Dry bitter ending. A bit watered on the palate. OK start to a the Wetherspoon spring festival (Liverpool, 07.04.2013).

Cask at the William Webb Ellis, Twickenham, 07/04/13. Clear pale golden with a decent white cap. Good lacing ensues. Nose carries pale malts, grass, citrus, light floral hop notes. Taste comprises pale malt, cereal, touch of orange, light hops. Medium bodied, fine carbonation, smooth and crisp in the finish. Ok stuff, the blandometer is edgeing towards amber but it was in good form and eminently quaffable!
