Pendle Beer Festival 2016. Golden-yellow in colour. Has a decent hop malt balance, with more of the former evident. Certainly sessionable.

Cask via handpump at the Pembury Tavern during the festival, on 16th July 2009. Gold in colour with white head that quickly flattens. Initial aromas of fresh-baked biscuit in the nose then fairly hoppy with grassy and cheesy notes in main kick. Texture is on the flat side. A dry finish with grass and grapefruit.

(Cask) Ochre-amber, crystal-clear. 1cm yellowish head. Nose with fruity hops, summer flowers or -weeds. Taste is much hoppier than the nose. English-type hops. Good malt base, just sweetness in the finish - nothing too much. Light to medium bodied. Just above average, but it is a very modern-day IPA, nothing resembling historic ones.
