Cask@GBBF 2009. Deep copper color, small off-white head. Aroma has diacetyl, toffee and nutty hops. Caramelly, nut hoppy flavor. A bit like some Shepherd Neame’s bitters.

Cask conditioned at The Hobgoblin, Reading. Slightly hazy copper colour with an off-white head; inviting citrus aroma; sweet and sticky in the mouth, like drinking orange marmalade; and a bitter orange aftertaste. Very different, and interesting - but slightly too sweet for me.

Cloudy amber color. The aroma is quite fruity. Some malt flavor, lightly fruity, bold bitterness, good body, light ending lactic sourness.

[Cask at Charlies Bar, Copenhagen] A hazy amber beer with a bubbly brown head. The aroma is sweet and mostly hoppy wiht a slight citrusy note. The flavor is sweet malty with some toffee, but also notes of citrus, leading to a dry bitter end.

Cask gravity at Reading BF 06. Amber with bubbly thin off white head. Attractive hop aroma. Good fruit and green hop. Hoppy finish, but piney, resiney hop too. Some toffee, bit of choc from the malt.
