Cask @ Old Gate, Hebden Bridge. Very dark with a small creamy off-white head. Only a touch of spice, but enough to give it a nice drinking texture, fairly light with some roasted malts evident too.

Bree Louise. Cask. Lightly hazy gold beer, small bubbly white head. Palate is dry and with a mild fine carbonation. Dry pale malts. Bitter floralness. A little juicy ripe orange and even a little hop spice. Dry finish. Bitter linger. Flavoursome, if dry.
