Tap at the White Swan, Chesterfield. Poured a clear medium amber with round white head. The aroma is malt, citrus, light grassy hop. The flavour is moderate bitter with a light yeast, toffee caramel, light hop bitter palate. Medium bodied with soft carbonation.

(Cask at Holborn Whippet, Holborn, London, 8 Apr 2014) Dark amber colour with brief, off-white head. Malty, fruity nose with notes of citrus, grapefruit, orange peel and rye bread. Malty, fruity taste with dried fruit, caramel, citrus, orange peel, a hint of peat and a generous citric, earthy bitterness in the finish. Medium body, with balanced sweetness. Tasty and well made ESB. Nice one.
