Bottle from Corks, Bristol. Amber coloured with no head and slight carbonation. Earthy hop aroma with a touch of caramel. Flavour was Sweet, with some toffee, a hint of diacetyl and then the contrast of some big, chunky hops giving a very bitter finish. A bit disjointed.

Bottle from Corks, Bristol. Golden in colour with a short-lived white head and lively carbonation. Orange blossom and lychee aroma. Flavour of sweet malts, followed by citrus hops, a vague tinge of pine and a decent dry finish. Enjoyable stuff.

Cask gravity at The Bull, Horton Kirby. Lime cordial dominates on this beer from aroma to flavour to finish. I mean it’s just too much on the lime. Well served and in good condition but difficult to take this beer seriously

Cask at the Three Mariners, Hythe, Kent. Dark straw with a thin white head leaving some lacing; citrus and grainy aroma; thinly bodied with some watery fruit; and a pleasing bitterness. Rather disappointing overall.

On gravity at Reading Beer Festival, 01/05/09. Dark brown with some reddish undertones and a slight, off-white head. Roasted malts, a savoury edge and a touch of bitterness in the finish. Not the best mild out there.
