Cask at Wheatsheaf, Stoke on Trent. Pours a slightly hazy golden amber with a small off-white head and good lacing. Oranges to the fore in the aroma, plus some background tropical fruits. In te mouth it is sweet and fruity with a creamy texture, but some underlying bitterness as well. Tangerines and grapefruit with some hints of mango later on as well. Finish is slightly dry. This is quite decent.

[Cask at the Hope Tap (JDW), Reading.] A pale amber pour with a trace of white head; grainy aroma with a hint of tangerine; taste to match the aroma; then a dry bready finish. Not sure what the East Coast influence is supposed to be.
