Cask gravity at Reading BF 08. Biscuit bread aroma. Not the greatest IPA, decent hop and well put together. Finish is great, very chinooky, but overall pretty restrained.

[i] [b] Cask at Reading Beer Festival 02-05-08 following a two hour queue to get in grrrr![/i] [/b]Pours golden hazy orangey amber in colour. This starts off with a nice tangy and hoppy thrust, this hoppiness softens quite quickly and there is lazy citrussness that takes over, the finish is really quite dry and it has to be said that this beer really is quite lovely.

Cask-conditioned at the Bag O’Nails, Bristol 17/4/08. Golden coloured with a decent white head that left plenty of lacing down the glass. Attractive grapefruit and pine hop aroma with a touch of sweet malt. The flavour was also hoppy with some more resinous pine which left an almost prickly mouth feel and a long, satisfying dry finish. Excellent.
