Cask at Castle Tap Takeover, 14/01/17. Faintly malty aroma. Hazy chestnut. Thin but solid white head. Sweet and spices. The maltyness really comes through. Light bodied. Chalky. Long, slightly astringent, finish. Decent enough for a bitter.

Cask at the Cambridge Blue, Cambridge on 26th June 2015. Slightly hazy copper with off-white foam and plenty of lacing. Caramel malts and earthy yeasts in aroma. Leafy herbiness in-mouth with fine citric tang on the tongue. A touch of phenol. Grassy, bitter finish. Lightly zingy mouthfeel and fair body for strength.

Cask at the Nags Head, Reading. Hazy pale chestnut with a thin cream head; fruity aroma; slightly sour fruity taste, with some chocolate malt adding depth and dryness; and a pleasant citrusy leafy bitterness to finish. Very drinkable.
