Can from Good Intent, Brum. Hazy-opaque gold. Foamy white head soon disappears. Aroma has light rhubarb sourness with some sugary strands. Flavourwise it has a light-medium sourness (rhubarb to be fair) but lacks custard sweetness. There's more of a dulled sweet edge. Light-medium bodied. Slick. Soft-flat carbonation. Long dry somewhat astringent finish. An unexciting sour (haven't looked at the date on the can tho').

Cardiff Mini-break Beer#51. Last beer on a few hours stopover in Birmingham on the way home. Mildly sticky-sweet hazy golden coloured ale, full of tropical aroma and taste, within a full-body.

Cardiff Mini-break Beer#50. Good-looking soft stout, so it lacks a little body, however it's very easy, and the light coffee notes are appealing. Found in their bar in Birmingham on the way home.

Cardiff Mini-break Beer#49. Still in Birmingham on the way home. Hazy golden coloured. It is flavoursome with its extra heavy apricot, in both aroma and taste, but this beer would get overbearing after a while. Happy I just ordered a third here.

Cask at Crewe Dog, Crewe. Pours a hazy pale straw with minimal off-white head, good lacing and medium carbonation. The aroma is a right mix of fruits – berries, tropical and hedgerow. In the mouth it is quite bitter but with a little underlying sweetness. Flavour is mainly floral hops and grapefruit plus hints of stone fruit and generic citrus. Finish is dry and slightly sticky. Not really my kind of beer at all.
