Cask@Founders Arms, London. Orangeish golden colour with a mediumsized foamy head. Aroma is citrus, wood, some herbs, mild grass and some crystal malty and bready notes. Flavour is the same, but the maltyness is stronger than in the aroma. Pleasant dry palate along with hoppy bitterness in the finish.

Cask-conditioned at the Commercial Rooms, Bristol 10/11/10. Red amber with a decent, off-white head. Aroma of hedgerow fruit, caramel and slightly earthy malts. Flavour started sweet, with some orange fruit and a decent bitter finish with a touch of hop. Fine.

From cask. Pours clear and golden orange with a small off-white head. Aroma is fruity, light malty. Toasted malt base, light citrusy hoppy - vague grassy. Fruity and citric to bitter into a dry yet crisp hoppy finish.

Cask at the Claude du Vall (JDW), Camberley. Amber gold with a ring of white head; aroma of damp straw; lightly bodied with a grainy taste and texture and a honeyed sweetness, but also undertones of stewed vegetables that are rather unsettling; the finish is sticky, dry and warming.
