Clear golden with tiny white head. Sweet malty aroma with caramel notes. Flavour likewise with floral hops that gives it a bitter finish.

From cask. Pours slight cloudy and golden orange with a lacing white head. Mild fruity and hoppy aroma. Goes into a nice bitter and light fruity flavour with a mild bitterness and slight spice note showing through. Slight dry malty into the finish.

(Cask at Wenlock Arms, London, 9 Aug 2008) Golden colour with frothy, off-white head. Fruity nose with orange, hints of dusty hops and malt sweetness. Fruity taste with notes of citrus and biscuity malt. Short, citrussy finish. Decent, but rather boring.

Cask-conditioned at the Bag ONails, Bristol, 18/8/08. Deep amber in colour with a decent, off-white head. Very sweet, toffeeish aroma with a hint of redeeming spice. Flavour was much the same with a short, fruity finish. Never again....
