On tap, pours golden. Aroma and flavour of bland citrus hops balanced by English malt. Not too good.

Cask at the Bridge, Kingswinford. Aroma was some floral hops. Taste started floral, straw in the finish and a little butter in the aftertaste.

[on draught at the Oakford Social Club, Reading] A reasonable sweet dark golden bitter, a little fruity, very smooth and easy drinking. Not outstanding but slips down easily; a good session beer. Re-rate 28/4/2009. Amber. Sweet, citrussy beer. Pleasantly refreshing and more tasty than I remember.
