Sir John Oldcastle. Spoons. Cask. Lightly hazy gold beer, small pale cream colour head. Papate is airy and semi soft but has decent fine carbonation. Sweetish pale malts in good balance with modest orange citric hops. Little light floralness, very slightly perfumey. Finishes airy and slightly crisp. Pretty drinkable.

Cask. Looks golden, very small white head which disappears, leaving some lacing. Fruity zesty hints in the aroma. Taste is lemons, malty hints, medium mouthfeel. Nice, but fairly standard.

On cask at the Haymarket. Appearance - golden amber with a decent head. Nose - very elusive but faint oranges and pale malt. Taste - tangy oranges almost dry apricots. Malty background. Palate - close to medium bodied with a tangy texture and a long dry finish. Overall - challenging but enjoyable beer.

Cask at The Haymarket. Pours clear gold, thin white head. Light dusty lemon aromas. Taste has a chalky bite, more lemon bitterness. Bit thin on the finish. OK.
