Cask. Appearance- browny amber, small white head, leaves some lacing. Aromas of nutty malt, with some fruity hints. Taste is quite thin bodied, malty, toasted nutty hints, some dark fruit. Ok.

On cask at The Three Stags Bebington. Orange coloured with a white head. Aroma of malts, fruits and hops. Flavour of malts, fruits but a bit too much acidity.

On cask at the Haymarket. Appearance - caramel to golden with a nice head. Nose - elusive but there are notes of caramel biscuits. Taste - toffee and sawdust. Astringent malt finish. Palate - medium bodied with a creamy texture and an astringent unpleasant finish. Overall - sorry this seems at odds with other ratings so will try again later.

Cask at The Haymarket. Pours clear amber, thin off-white head. Aromas and taste is just biscuit. Not necessarily a bad thing.

Cask at the Bulls Head, Barston, Solihull. Golden amber pour with a lively, long-lasting white head. Malty aroma leading to a nice mellow, bitter taste with hints of caramel. A good choice of hops delivers a nice refreshing ale. It was served a iittle cooler than I would normally expect, but that took little away from the flavour. This ale isnโt readily available in the English Midlands, but itโs worth tasting and like most ales of this style, itโs perfect for a session.

Cask. Golden-amber. Earthy, with a hint of caramel. Soft caramel taste, again a bit earthy. Light, refreshing working class bitter.
