Pours a deep amber with an amazingly persistent thick head.Aroma is restrained, with sweet caramel malt, light fruity notes, a hint of honey and somewhat grassy hops.Similar flavours with more caramel and grassy notes, some toffee and a mild bitterness.Low carbonation and body, very drinkable.

Cask (@ Bricklayer’s Arms, Putney): Deep ruby-amber coloured, small lacey brownish head; dry hoppy and roast-malty nose with a subtle, but distinctive fruitiness in the background; moderate bitter flavour, light bodied, but not watery, smooth; slightly lingering moderate fruity-bitter finish. Pleasant, a fine session brew.........

Cask: Very deep amber coloured, small lacy brownish head with pink spots; sweet caramel in the otherwise hoppy and fruity nose; relatively light bodied, smooth, robust bitter-sweet flavour; almost a tinge of molasses in the dryish lingering hoppy-fruity (dried fruits) finish. Fine characterful brew.........

Cask (Harp, Strand, London) - Gold/amber in colour. Fruity and malty aroma. The taste is also fruity and malty and has a mild bitterness. Fairly refreshing.

Very typical aroma of some hops and a lot of wateriness and some tinniness. Looks alright, decent head, okay gold-amber hue. Taste has some kind of herbal hint to it, a bready and bitter back-end, slight complexity for sure but not spectacular. Just okay.
