Pours an almost clear amber colour with a small creamy white head. The aroma is citrus, malts, and some pine. A moderately sweet and bitter taste, pale malts, pithy grapefruit and pine flavours with an astringent hoppy bitterness.

Cask at the Hope Tap (JDW), Reading. Pale amber with a cream-coloured head. Creamy mouthfeel with bitter pine from the off. There's some grapefruit and malted milk biscuits in there too. Lightly dry finish with a lasting bitterness. The bitterness is a little overdone compared to the other flavours for me. Ok, but below what I'd normally expect from Oakham.

Cask handpull at County Hotel JDW Ashford. Clear amber colour and lasting beige head. Oh yes definitely some pine and resin in the mouth. A little light in condition which is odd about Oakham as they normally brewery condition perfectly. Some bitterness on the finish. S9me nettle hop some pine on finish. OK.
