Cask gravity at GBBF 2007. Gold, lasting off white head. Slightly yeasty, lots of English hops. Some pepper. Bit too yeasty, but hops are ok and the finish is tasty.

Cask at the Waggon and Horses (JDW), Alfreton. Amber with a thick off-white head; aroma of floral hops; smooth in the mouth with orange and lots of zesty hops; a bitter finish. Does exactly what it says on the pump.

[Cask at GBBF 2005] A pale orange beer with a dying off-white head. The aroma is sweet - and simple of hops. The flavor is sweet with notes of hops and citrus, leading to a dry dusty hay end.
