April 2011. On tap somewhere in Cambridge. Amber color with almost no beige head. Aroma, malty, nuts, caramel. Taste, surprisingly very fruity, some caramel. Bittersweet finish. Good, refreshing beer.

cask at No. 2 Baker’s Street in Stirling - Pours dark amber-red with a lasting, off-white head. It has a minimal aroma mostly of grainy malt. The flavor is caramel malt with light bitterness. It’s light to medium bodied and pretty good overall. It would be improved if it was a bit more aromatic.

Cask at Cumberland bar ... i only popped in cause i was passing... and its usually got nothing ... Imagine my amazement to find 2 new ticks ... then my disappointment to find they were both Green King ... Still this one was worth the discovery ... deep red brown ... ovaltine toffee nose ... sweet toffee malts ... little blackcurrant ... little ovaltine ... DARE I SAY IT... while lacking the body and the it has tones that remind me of WESTVLETERN 12 ...

Cask-conditioned at the Bishops Tavern, Bristol 21/04/09. Brown with a slight, off-white head. Indifferent malty brew, with some fruit and sweetness and not much else. Forgettable.
