Cask at the Three Guineas, Reading. Hazy golden brown colour, eventually clearing, with a loose white head. Malty aroma, and predominantly fruity malty flavour with a touch of light hops and citrus to finish. Very pleasant.

Cask at the Southampton Arms, London on 24th June 2010. Gold with a white lacing head. Deliciously hoppy with grass, herb and grapefruit notes; bitter on roof of mouth, with lingering bitter finish on a zingy mouthfeel. Very enjoyable beer.

cask at No. 2 Baker Street in Stirling - Pours slightly hazy golden with an aroma of biscuity malt and light fruit. The flavor is of sweet, bready malt with mild bitterness. Itโs light bodied and tasty.
