Cask at the Hobgoblin, Reading. Poured straw with a thin white head; citrus aroma; lightly citrus flavour to start, but with a think oily body revealing a complex texture with sweet chewy malts and grain; then a gently bitter finish. Shows that a Golden Ale need not be one-dimensional.

Cask gravity at Reading BF 2010. Gold, only a few white bubbles. Dryish golden ale. It’s ok, nothing wrong with it, bit of orange flavour.

Cask gravity at Reading BF 2010. Clear pale gold, lasting off white head. Peachy fruit aorma. Wow, that is really unusual, it’s like Robinson tangerine jelly. Really arresting tangerine flavour.

Cask-conditioned at the Bag O’Nails, Bristol 18/4/10. Near black in colour with a thin tan head. Aroma of dark chocolate, berry fruit and some caramel sweetness. Flavour had more fruitiness, plenty of roasted malts, chocolate and a decent, bitter finish. Good.
