Cask at the Prince Albert, Ely. Mid-brown, clear with minimal head. Wood, cereal and nutty aroma. There is a sweetness to the taste, and although it is malt-led, there is a note of simple bitter hop in the finish. A basic recipe but well made and certainly well worth trying.

Cask at the Henley Brew House. Hazy amber with a thin white head; aroma of damp hay; soft and grainy with a sweet caramel malt taste; and a dry, woody, finish. A satisfying rural bitter.

Cask at The Gunmakers, London. Pours clear gold with a prickly, white foam head. Some mild fruits in the nose, along with hay. Light sweet flavor with hay, mild cereal and dough, faint leaves. Light bodied with fine carbonation. Sugary sweet finish with doughy bread, very light leafy bitterness, straw and hay. Very basic. Like a cross between a bitter and a golden ale, I would say.

Cask at Oxford Pub, London. A hazy amber beer with a thin white head. The aroma has notes of malt and toffee. The flavor is sweet with notes of malt and elderflowers, leading to a dry elderflower finish.
