Cask at GBBF 08. Gold, lasting white head. Some yeast/hop on aroma. Bit yeasty maybe. Little bit dull. Building hop sting on the finish. It’s a golden ale.

Bottle at home ... very little hop in nose ... orangy hop ... light touch of lageryness ... touch medicinal ... some light fruit ... little tart ... quite clean and crisp ... a good palate clenser with a curry ... but other wise a touch bland if perfectly drinkable.

Half on gravity at the Fat Cat in Ipswich. Clear goden. Small ring layer. Very light hoppy aroma. Well rounded fruity and hoppy flavour - citrus fruits (succulent oranges and grapefruit). Refreshing, but not more than average for a blond ale (22.09.2006).
