(Cask at Ship & Mitre, Liverpool, 24 July) Colour is dark amber with a frothy head. Nose is fruity and hoppy with a nice grapefruit aroma. Taste is fruity and actually very hoppy with loads of grapefruit character, almost piney. Balanced sweetness. Long and very bitter finish. Feels very much US style and a very nice brew.

Cask gravity at Kent BF 2006. This was labelled as Lakeland Gold, but at the same ABV. Deep gold, lasting bubbly off white head. Very flowery hop aroma. Really lovely beer. Bit astringent, but hop is fantastic. A bit like a US style IPA. This is my kind of beer.
