Cask at the Cock, 18/03/14. Lightly hazed golden with a moderate off white covering. Nose is bready, summer fruit, orange, biscuit, straw. Taste comprises bready malts, summer fruit, light soap, straw. Medium bodied with moderate carboantion. So so - not up the usual HH standards, lacking in the 2nd H !

Cask handpull Cock Tavern. Clear amber no real head. Ok beer. Sone lemon lime flavour. Lager malts or yeast? some bitterness just about ok.

Cask at the Cock Tavern. It pours golden amber with a small white head. The nose is natural yoghurt, apricot, peach and nectarine. The taste is orange peel, bold bitterness, natural yoghurt, floral, wood and straw with a very long bitter finish. Light-medium body and soft carbonation. Well balanced.

(Cask at Cock Tavern, Hackney, London, 25 Apr 2013) Pale amber colour with brief, white head. Fruity, hoppy nose with notes of citrus, grass and tropical fruit. Fruity, hoppy taste with grainy malt, citrus, tropical fruit, grass and a fresh, generous citric bitterness in the finish. Medium body, with a touch of sweetness. Tasty and refreshing. Nice one.

Cask at the Cock Tavern - London. Pours clear gold with a slight, filmy white head. Ripe citrus nose, orange, melon, hints of dry straw. Light to medium sweet flavor with sugary citrus fruits, a bit of orange rind bitterness, straight orange, tangerine, mango and melon, faint dry minerals and hay. Light bodied with fine carbonation. Perhaps sits a bit heavy for the ABV. Sweet citrus fruit finish, slight marmalade, more orange, light citrus peel. Very nice overall.

Cask at the Brewpub. Almost clear gold beer, residual white head. Palate is light and semi dry. Mild carbonation. Juicy hops - mellow grapefruit, apples (in a good way), mild orange marmalade and a little floralness. Finishes semi dry with mellow bitterness. Less shouty than some of the US hopped beers but decent.
