[Cask at the Bootlegger, High Wycombe] Amber-gold, slight white head. Flowers, lemons and grapefruit. Good flavour for the low ABV, and goes down a treat. Nice!

Cask at the Claude du Vall (JDW), Camberley. Golden amber with an attractive ring of white head; aroma of orange fruit and spicy hops; medium body with rich buttery malts, orange fruit, and crisp apples; then some pungent English hops giving a lasting finish with a hint of nettle. An excellent bitter, particularly for the ABV. The best beer I’ve tried at this JDW festival.

Cask handpull at Samuel Peto JDW Folkestone. Gold light brown with a lasting thin cream coloured head. Little bit of light hop on the aroma. Some ok very light biscuit malt in the mouth. Good dry stingy hop on the finish. Its a tasty light bitter. I rather like it. Its a session bitter with enough stingy finishinh hop to make you want to take another gulp.
