Cask gravity at the 21st South Downs Fest. It pours clear golden with a small white head. The aroma is earthy, bready, biscuit, toasty grain, hay and grass. The taste is pretty bitter, earthy, wood, toasty grain, grass, straw, floral and biscuit with a drying finish. Medium body and soft carbonation. I am impressed with just how bitter this actually is. Decent enough golden bitter.

Chelmsford Beer Festival. Hazy amber beer. Good bubbly white head. Palate is light and semi dry. Nice fine minerally carbonation. Light malt base, semi sweet. The Admiral hops are floral with mild citrus and a little peel. Finishes light and crispy. Refreshing ale.

Cask gravity at 1st K&ES Railway BF 2009. Hazy old gold with thin beige head. Not a huge aroma, some hop. Not bad, could do with being a bit more hoppy, but decent balance, masks the strength well. Hops come through more as you dirnk it. Bit of lime on the hop. Could be good if you gave it a day and it was stored at a colder temperature.
