Cask på Kelham Island Tavern, Sheffield 1 Okt 10. Lys gylden. OK kremskum. Svak fruktig aroma. Smaken litt uvariert. Tørr avslutning.

White, minimal head at the top of a clear, straw coloured body. Malt-fruity aroma. Fruity aroma sustained by dry, spiced hops building up to a pleasant bitter end. Cask, half, at Kelham Island Tavern, Sheffield 1 Oct 10.

Cask gravity at Birmingham beer festival. Poured near pitch black with a small head. Aroma was licorice, blackberries and alcohol. Dark fruity malt start. Roast malt and some berries on the finish. Thick and smooth, slightly medicinal aftertaste.

(Cask at Bree Louise, London) This beer was very citric. There were citricness both in aroma and in taste. Aroma had some yeast, too, which didn’t really fit in so well. Maltiness was quite low which wasn’t really a surprise. Aftertaste was long lasting and bitter. Nice.

500ml bottle. Pours a slightly hazy yellow with a large head. Aroma is orangey hops, some grass too. Some grass to start. Nice strong bitter finish with some citrus. Good body for the low strength.

Cask at the ’Grape and Grain’ beer festival, Crystal Palace. Gold pour with a white head. Citrus, pineapple and hop aromas. Nice citrus burst in the taste with a bit of caramel and herbs. Sharp hop finish. Refreshing.

Cask at The Rake, London. Pours a hazy yellow-gold with a strong, white head. Hoppy aroma with grass and zesty citrus. Lightly sweet with tons of bitterness in the form of grapefruit and pine, mostly. Light to medium in body with average carbonation. Finishes very dry and hoppy with subtle malts. Great.

Cask at St Albans beer festival 2010. An amber coloured pour with a medium white fluffy head. Nice fresh hoppy, malty aroma. Tastes of caramel, malty, hoppy, bitter, floral, citrus fruit. A well balanced IPA from Oakham. Top draw.

Cask at Bree Louise. Pours a pale yellow with a thin head. Hoppy nose with citrus and straw. Sweet flavor with light cereal and lots of hop bitterness, lemony. Medium in body with fine carbonation. Crisp, lingering bitters. Almost like an IPA. Very good.

Cask-conditioned at the Wellington, Birmingham 31/08/10. Deep gold in colour with a slight white head. Big, tropical fruit aroma with some sweetness. Flavour was big on the fruit, with grapefruit, tangerines and pineapple with a hoppy,dry finish. Good, but a bit too much going on for me.
