Cask @ Harp Inn, Bangor. Golden with a creamy head. Has a light bitterness and a decent smoothness to it, as well as a good body for its strength. Session ale.

Cask @ The Palladium JDW, Llandudno [290115]
Light amber, clear, dense white head, good lacing
Aroma of light fruits
Taste of soft caramel malts, light cereal, light malts, touch of toffee, sugar, soft fruits, little hops, very light beer
Palate - Light body, thin, soft sweet. Finish of very light malts
Overall - Easy, light bitter. It’s a low abv sessionable beer and for what it does it’s quite nice.

Cask @ The Palladium JDW, Llandudno [290115]
Caramel brown, dense white head, some lacing
Aroma of soft toasted malts, brown malts, slight bubble gum, some soft dark fruits
Taste of caramel, soft toffee, hint of chocolate, sweet malts, bit nutty, little hops, touch of bubble gum, quite fruity malts, soft yeast, some dunkelweizen notes, plenty of flavour in this but I’m not sure about the taste overall, somewhat muddled
Palate - Medium body, but a little thin, smooth texture, fairly sweet, alcohol quite well hidden. Finish of fairly sweet caramel, some soft dark fruity malts
Overall - Doesn’t quite get there taste wise, but could be really good with some tweaking

On gravity at the Great Welsh Beer Festival, 6/6/2013. Ruby red with a slight, off-white head. Sweet and malty brew, with a touch of fruit and slightly earthy edge. Not for me.
