Handpull cask at the White Lion Hotel, Upton upon Severn. Dark amber, clear, no head. Earthy dark caramel in the aroma. Cherry syrup, bonfire toffee. Very sweet taste, more toffee, bitter finish. Thin body, little carbonation. A bit weird and not particularly satisfying.

500ml bottle bought at a gift shop in Burton-on-the Water, and shared with Gary. Good looking with its lacing rings from a decent off-white head over a clear mahogany coloured body. Inviting smell of caramel malts, mid-dry. Flavoured with caramel, bread, and dusty hops. Soft caramel-toffee like finish. Easy to drink. Pretty good. (Hotel room, Sheffield 28.04.2025).

Bottle from Melbicks Garden Centre, Coleshill. Light misted dark gold with small white top. Aroma has notes of citrus, hay and floral notes. Taste has a citrus and dough, with some hop spice and a good floral bitter finish. More interesting then your average golden ale.
