Bottle at home and it's a good one. Balanced towards malt so there is a sweetness to the taste but very refreshing. And loads going on for a sensible abv. Very good example of the style.

1/3 cask pour at GBBF Winter. Foggy golden pour with a frothy white head. Hoppy aroma, fruity, musty. Taste adds on a layer of hop oil character, sticky and oily. Mouthcoating with a fair amount of bitterness.

Half pint from the cask at Queen's Head, Chelmsford. Pours amber with next to no head. Aromas & tastes of caramel, biscuit & malt. Medium body. Moderate bitter finish. Passable

Bottle shared at the Ben Burrows memorial virtual bottle share. Cheers Grumbo. Aroma of garlic bread, parsley, grass and citrus. Not for me.

Shared with Dan and Grumbo. Aroma is of caramel, pine and hoppy. High carbonation and earthy. Not bad.

Cask at Chelmsfaasarhd Beer Fest. Near clear gold beer, small bubbly pale cream colour head. Airy and semi dry palate, decent fine carbonation. Overall, good condition. Light smooth pale malts, a thin creamy sweetness. Ernest hops deliver a softish sweet pine into a light bright slightly mango, slightly tangerine mandarin affair. Maybe a whispet or lime before a light and semi dry finish. Tangy fruity linger. Well , I am assuming this is an Ernest single hop affair. If so, a lot more tropical than I can recall. A very solid hop in a very solid gold.
