Cask at Euston Tap, London. A golden coloured pour with a medium white head on top. Hoppy, citrus aroma. Tastes hoppy, citrus fruit, malty, some tropical fruit, slight bitterness. Pretty good but a bit one dimensional for me anyway.

Cask @ The Caley, Edinburgh 150612
Brown! in appearance, clear, good lacing
Aroma - soft bitter hops, caramel malts
Taste - Nice bitter hops, caramel malts, hint of toffee, some soft fruity malts, note of red berries, soft bitter roast, lot of flavour for 3.8%
Palate - Bit dry in the finish
Overall - Thatโs how to make a really good classic English Bitter - excellent - puts most other examples of the style to shame
