Cask conditioned at Inn on the Green, Bristol, November 2006. Pale orange with a slight white head. Aroma contained some grassy hops. Flavour was citric with a bit of residual sweetness. Finish was dry and decent. A good beer - Archers may not be the best, but the beers are perfectly drinkable and I will be sorry if they close down.

I have checked my notes and I definitely drank this beer at the Cross Hands, Winterbourne Down, S Gloucs in October 2006. This was served in excellent condition with an amber colour and slight white head. The aroma was slightly toffeeish with some supporting hops. It was very easy drinking with a malty caramel flavour and smooth, dry finish. Very good - I had several pints of it.

Cask conditioned at the Black Horse, Amberley, Gloucs 22/4/07. Very middle-of-the road bitter. Amber, with next to no head. A hint of sweet fruit in the aroma followed by a slightly malty flavour and a short dry finish. Ordinary but served in good condition.

Cask at C4, Odense: Clear yellow with fresh foamy head. Pilsner malts & citrus plus again a malty touch - wheat & again fruity citrus. OK smooth & fresh & a decent bitter end!

Cask. Good grassy hop aroma. Almost clear copper colour. Frothy white head. Good hop flavour with low to medium bitterness. Refreshing citricness. Very uncomplicated, but quite OK.

Cask at the Wharf, Aalborg. Clear, golden-orange with a small white head. Citrusy and fruity hops with a note of malt and grain in the aroma. Sweet, lemony flavor with some pine, malt and hay. Thin to medium body. A quite nice one. (070331)
