Cask pint in a Blackpool Wetherspoons on 8th Sep 2016. Clean and clear golden body, full white head. Decent enough blend without actually having any real aromas or flavours. So, nothing special and nothing upsetting for the palate, nose or eyes.

Cask @ Waterend Barn, St Albans, during the Wetherspoon’s Spring Beer Festival 2015. Golden with a creamy head. Has light hops and light malts, which combine for a well-balanced ale, but not quite full-bodied.

Clear gold beer. Very nicely balanced for a gold beer, Nice level of sweet nalt with some nice orange and mango fruit hop coming through. Too dry though! Nice flavour - but too bloody dry!
