Cask at the Pup and Duckling, Solihull. Poured a mostly clear yellow golden colour with a lasting frothy white head. The aroma is grainy, light hops. The flavour is over moderate bitter, with a smooth, fresh, light citrus, big woody hop bitter palate and a long bitter finish. Medium bodied with soft carbonation.

Cask at Bird in Hand, Stafford. Pours lemon yellow with a small white head and good lacing. Not much of an aroma – just vaguely biscuits and lemon. In the mouth it is sweet and malty (also light and somewhat watery). Biscuits the main flavour, with some hints of citrus. Eventually there is a little floral hoppiness too. Finish is slightly dry. This is OK, but rather bland to say the least.
