Cask at Moon under Water, Wolverhampton. Pours a golden amber with a medium sized white head and good lacing. Malts and fruits are detectable in the aroma. In the mouth it is rather hoppy, but fruity hops give way to bitter ones, and then later sweet malts enter the equation too. Reasonable.

[Cask at the Queen Hotel (JDW), Aldershot.] A golden amber pour with no head; fruity aroma with apricot and pineapple; an off-sweet fruity taste with more pineapples and a hint of raspberries; then a dry finish with a lingering hedgerow bitterness. Very drinkable.
