A classic copper coloured bitter, the sweetness of the malt perfectly balanced with the bitterness of the hops, crafted from a range of choicest English malted barleys including Maris Otter, Tipple and Crystal malts. Spicy British hops complement the malty, caramel flavours and fruity American hops add a refreshing bitter sweet palate.

Cask halfpint at The Townhouse, Ely. Served a bit too warm. Deep golden colour, white head. Moderate malty aroma, a hint of diacetyl. Malty flavour, but fairly dry, some bittering hops, but no fruitiness. A hint of diacetyl. Appears rather dull. I expect more from Kelham Island.

Bottle from Asda. Saves me having to go in the Fat Cat or Tap and Tankard. Pale amber colour. Fizzy head quickly disappears. Sweet malts. Bit of toffee. Trace of citrus hop, although that’s pushing it. Taste is sweet with some jarring bitterness. Too fizzy. A bit thin. Not for me.

Cask. Goldeny orange colour with a small head. Aroma is caramel malts, some bready notes as well as mild wooden, resiny and floral notes to it. Flavour is rather similar, but has a quite nice nutty and grassy approach to things. Pleasant.
