Cask at the Hare and Billet, Blackheath. Bright gold pour with a white head. Aromas of pineapple, peach, pear and any other fruit beginning with p! Good fruit flavours- yellow melon, pear and pineapple. Quite a refreshing number. Sweet fruit feel. Nice.

Cask at the Market Porter. Light fruit and citrus? aromas. Tarnished gold color with a frothy white head. A bit less than medium body with smooth carbonation. Swear there’s ginger in it. Finishes lightly sweet, not quite balanced by the ginger? spice. Some kind of hottish spice - pepper? Good.
