Cask @ The Brink, Manchester. Clear golden and mildly hoppy, but slightly watery. Has small sugary notes in its taste, and is strong in its nose.

On cask at Monty's Bar. Appearance - golden with a nice fluffy head. Nose - herbs and lemon. Taste - very dry lemon pith and grassiness. In fact, getting into green plant stalks. Palate - light bodied, very bitter. Overall - I find most Mallinsons beer to be too bitter fory palate and this is another example.

4.1% Cask handpull at GBBF 2018. Clear gold colour lasting white head. Hoppy pale ale from Mallinsons. Not much malt. Some bitterness some soap some herb. OK slightly above average golden ale.

GBBF Day 2. Cask. Light haze on this gold beer, small pale cream colour head. Smooth and semi dry palate, modest fine carbonation. Semi xry malts bring a mild sweetness. Tangy citrus, some bitterish citrc peel, grapefruit and orange. The back end produces a not unexpected harsh bitternes. Semi dry.finish. Not a great beer serverd in not great condition. Mallinsons seem stuck in a rut to me. They can do brighter, cleaner more modern hoppy beers but appear want to carry on regressing to clunky, dry - boil hop jobs
