Cask at GBBF 2008 This had a very nice soft malty flavour, clean tasting, good but not overpowering bitterness, some citrus on the nose and tasting stronger than it actually was.

[i] [b] Cask at The Plough, Worcester 08-03-08 [/i] [/b] Pours golden with great clarity and with just a tiny white rim of bubbles for a head. Some floral notes and citrus on the aroma but otherwise the nose is quite restrained. Taste is gloriously honey sweetness and citrus, an excellent beer which if it had just a bit more body to it would be even better, still it’s very good.

Cask, handpump at the Great Malvern Hotel 09-03-07 . This poured golden in colour with the merest hint of haze and a thin white lasting head. Taste was really sublime, refreshingly crisp citrusy and with the most amazing hoppy bitterness that just went on for ever and a day, this really was top notch, if I had any criticism and this was only slight it was that it was served just a tad too cold for my liking otherwise it was excellent. A7 A3 F9 P4 Ov17 4.0 Had this again at The Plough, Fish Street, Worcester, 27-06-09 Pours amber with a slight haze and a white rim of bubbles was all that showed for a head. Decent full flavoured beer with a good bittersweet balance, its tasty and still a very decent drop of beer, but not the great beer that I had a couple of years back. Re-rate. A7 A4 F7 P4 Ov14 3.6
