Cask-conditioned at the Bag ONails, Bristol 29/04/09. Amber coloured with a slight white head. Sweet, barley sugar aroma with a touch of hay and grassy hops. Surprisingly easy drinking given the ABV, with more sweetness, a touch of grainy malt and a lingering bitter finish. Ok.

Bottle from Brewer’s Droop, Bristol. Deep gold with a foamy white head and moderate carbonation. Aroma of hay, sweet malts and a touch of citrus hops. Flavour was a bit subdued, with some grainy malts, tired hops and a short bitter finish - the clear glass bottle may not have helped. Just about OK.

Cask, Three Guineas, Reading. Amberish gold colour with little in the way of head. Slightly damp farty aroma with a vague hint of musty hop. Some citrus notes in the flavour which had enough hop present to make this a sinkable thirst quencher that is ok considering the strength.
