Cask. Clear golden with a small white head. Neutral, lightly fruity nose. Light body, funny biscuity accents with a whiff of citrus. Dry finish. Kinda fun beer. 200110

Cask, Market Porter. ’I’m the wyz son, and I haven’t had any dinner......’ Erm, yeah, pallid amber colour with a small white head. Aroma not bad with decent enough traces of hop and summer fruit. Quite a bit in the flavour for a beer this strength, with a reasonable malt/hop balance. Solid effort.
