Cask at the Cambridge Blue, Cambridge. Gold with a thin white head; fruity aroma with apples and pears; the taste has biscuity malts and sour fruit; then a dry lemony finish. Not bad, but not what I expect from an IPA.

Hook Norton Beer Festival 22-07-06. I have often seen Potton beers around but for some reason have never got around to trying them and only tried this as I had to nip in and use my last token before we had to depart. Amber in colour, aroma a bit sweet with some malts and hops, taste also quite hoppy and a little sweet again. Unexciting and understrength IPA that really isn’t an IPA at all but an ok session bitter.

[Cask at Volunteers Arms, GBBF 2004] An orange beer with no head. Both the aroma and flavor are primarily sweet malty, but also slightly fruity. The mouthfeel is cask flat and the body is thin.
