Cask handpull at Ship & Mitre, Liverpool. Gold, thin white head. Some toffee in this. Quite drinkable, some puckering dryness on finish. Not as yeasty as some Hyde’s I’ve had. Fine.

Cask at The Market Porter, London. Light floral aroma. A ruddy, amber color with a beige head. Medium body - smooth, but sharpish carbonation. A mouthful of light fruit followed by a burst of biscuit. Finishes well balanced. Good.

Cask handpull at Ye Cracke, Liverpool. Gold, lasting pale beige head. Not hugely interesting, some sweaty sox. It’s ok, the hop is tasty, rest is so-so. Bit minerally. Lemon too. Sweaty sox dominate.

Cask handpull at County Hotel, JDW, Ashford. Copper colour with lasting beige head. Looks in good condition. It’s an ok bitter, just doesn’t do anything special. Aroma of stone/mineral and hop and subtle fruit salad, which is fine. Solid enough in mouth. Fruit salad and moderate hop on finish. Not as yeasty as some Hydes beers. Decent fruit salady bitter.
