Cask at the Crosse Keys, JDW. Clearish gold with a decent, foamy head. Malty aroma, hints of wood and leaves. Moderate sweet flavor, some hints of toffee, bread, mild earth. Light in body with fine carbonation. Light toasty malt finish, slightly watery, very few hops up in this piece. Soso.

Cask at the Southampton Arms on 5th March 2011. Clear copper with thin light grey head. Aroma quite light and fruity. Tangy citrus liquid, with berry fruits and some bitter hoppiness hitting roof of mouth. Fruity and rather sweet-to-acidic aftertaste, leaving lemony citrus lingering.

Cask. A hazy golden beer with a lazing off-white head. The aroma has notes of honey as well as lighter notes of straw. The flavor is sweet with notes of straw, malt, and honey, leading to a dry and bitter finish where the honey note lingers.

Cask gravity at Colchester BF 2011. Gold clear lasting bubbly whote head. Some malty toffee bit like candy sugar. Its an ok light bitter. Condition is fine but that hard candy toffee flavour is not really my thing. Decent hop sting on finish.
