Cask Conditioned at The Castle, Furnival St., London
Hazy blond color, small head. It’s a mild Golden Ale, with a light grassy aroma, round body, a bit sweet. Pleasant, yet easy.

Hazy blond color. Very nice aroma of English hops, fruity too. Even at this low alcohol, it has a good mouthfeel, with good malt flavor and very good hopping, flowery (a light presence of elderflower comes to mind). Long final. One of the best cask ales in London this week. Excellent.

Cask, handpump at the Woolpack, Banbury, Oxon 20-12-08 Pours mid brown, but tricky to be exact in the light. Hops show on the nose and nicely bitter, some winter spices are present and finishes a little drying. Decent beer. A6 A4 F7 P4 OV14 3.5

[Cask at the Briar Rose, Birmingham.] Gold with a thin white head, leaving good lacing - aroma of peaches and apricots - sweet apricot fruit flavours to start, then developing a sharp grapefruit bitterness that masks the alcohol well.

Cask handpull at Market Porter. Gold, floral hop, bit of tea in flavour, bit too sweaty sox for me. Good but a bit thin, but good hop.

Cask-conditioned at a JDW in Swindon 30/10/08. Gold with next to no head. Hoppy aroma and flavour of citrus, with a whiff of pine and spiciness giving way to a decent bitter finish. Good stuff.

Cask at The Regal, JDW, Cambridge, 11-10-08 Straw coloured, (light was very dim so might not be totally correct) Good tang to this beer, nice soft lemonyness, furry bitterness ripples across the roof of mouth.
