29th July 2016: cask pint in my local Wetherspoons. Clear golden amber pour, white head and good lacing. Fruity esters with a light malty aroma, taste similar with semi-sweet malts blending with a mild citrus, tropical fruit flavour. Decent.

On tap @ the Stockbridge Tap. Pours amber with a slight haze and a decent head. My general impressions were a little better than the other raters - nice appley fruit on the nose and taste while being quite balanced. This has got to come under Bitter in style, though.
