4th November 2008. Clear brown beer, small white head. Tangy malt and fruit. Caramel, orange and a trace of grapefruit. Gives way to a dry finish where cinnamon, banana and bubblegum notes make themselves known at the very end.

Cask at the Colombia Press (JDW), Watford Rather unpleasant. Looks good, gold with a thin white head, but it’s downhill from there. Thin in body with sweet malts and some red fruit; then a finish that’s dry with a metallic bitterness. Perhaps this doesn’t travel well and it’s fine in Wales?

(can, 44cl, 3.5% abv) Slightly hazy, amber colour with a mid-sized and slightly off-white foamy head. Moderately sweet and slightly sour fruity (cara-)malty aroma with a tinge of ginger and shy hoppy notes. Slightly sweet and minimal sour flavour, light bodied with a mild carbonation. Slightly fruity (cara-)malty taste with a slightly bitter hoppy blend, especially towards the finish. 07.X.09

Light blond colour with light foamy head. Massive aroma of fresh, citrusy hops. Clean, refreshing beer with a nice floral hop flavour and a slightly dry, bitter finish.

Can (label says 3.5%): Clear, light amber coloured, bigger stable creamy off-white head; light - typical "english" - fruity-malty nose, maybe with a touch of butterscotch and a light but distinctive hop profile; light bitter-sweet flavour, soft, light bodied; pretty delicate bitter-malty finish. Thin, but not bad..........
