Handpull cask from the Salmon, Leicester. Mid- to dark gold, clear with a little bit of white head and lots of lacing. Caramel, dried grass, some white grapefruit in the aroma. Bittersweet taste, a bit herbal with more caramel. Bitterness in the finish with more grapefruit in the aftertaste. Not a great beer really.

Peaches and green tea combined to give a zesty, spritzy light ale. It pours a pale gold with a small, frothy white head, and an aroma of light biscuit malt and peaches. It's pretty thin bodied, quite watery, with a bit of zing in the mouthfeel, peach and green tea flavours combined, and a short, light bitterness in the finish

Cask at the Plough in Kingham. Admittedly it isn't my favourite style but it came across as overly smoked. Nice colour though and far from unpleasant.
