Cask-conditioned at the Bag O’Nails, Bristol 18/8/2015. Pale amber, with a slight, off-white, head. Easy drinking, with a touch of citrus fruit, slightly earthy malts and moderately bitter finish. Good.

Cask at GBBF 2015 which pours a clear gold leaning towards amber. The nose is wheat crackers & honeyed graham. Fairly full bodied with a satisfying mouthfeel. The taste is graham biscuits, lemony hopss & zest. Solid enough.

GBBF Day 1. Cask. Almost clear gold beer, thin white head. Palate is smooth and semi dry, decent fine carbonation. Sweetish pale malts, touch of honey. Modest orange marmalade livened by a little lemon tang. Light finish. Not bad.
