[handpump at the Hobgoblin, Reading] Beautiful bright gold with a minimal white head. Soft but slightly prickly fizz. A sour bitterness at first. A little malt and a little grass comes through. Very easy drinking, and the softness is somehow moreish. The bitterness grows in the finish, but there’s not really a lot to this beer. Disappointing overall.

Cask-conditioned at the summer beer festival, The Royal Oak, Bath 19/7/08. Deep golden in colour with a slight, white head. Aroma of sweet malt, ginger spice and grassy hops. Flavour was dominated by stem ginger in a positive way, being very drinkable with a warming kick and some bitterness in the finish. A good summer beer.
