Cask during GBBF 2014 - London. Pours clear yellow-gold with a creamy white head. Nice citrusy hop character, some light biscuity sweetness. Light in body with fine carbonation. Pretty well balanced to finish. Good one.

Cask (thanks to James) during the IoW Jolly Day 2014. It pours clear golden with pretty much no head. The nose is soft, juicy, peach and apricot. The taste is crisp, bitter, grapefruit rind, pepper, bready, grassy and some mild astringency with a dry finish. Light-medium body and low carbonation. Simple stuff. OK at best.
