Sampled cask conditioned. Chestnut brown. Ashy aroma. very mild, very fruity, some crystal malt characterm, hint of smoke. Very mild. An unusual beer that grew on me.

Golden coloured. Overly sweet & one dimensional. Disappointing lagerlike real ale.

Pale yellow with majestic head. The lemongrass is dominating this beer, and makes me think off wahing-up liquid, and I can't say I find it particularly pleasant. But than I don't like lemongrass either.

Unbelievably high rating at the Great British Beer Festival. I still find the use of extremely bitter hops totally out of hand. Probably the first pint of my life that I was unable to finish. Undrinkable. If you guys like it, fine. I just don't. Sorry.

Golden coloured. Floral hop aroma. Rather sweet, medium bodied, soapy big hop aroma. Late lingering bitterness.

Cask @ The Bell. Hazy blonde. Fruity, maybe earthy mushroomy aroma. Toasty, herbal character. Ok - maybe a bit bland. I didn’t understand this one in the bottle and I don’t understand the appeal on cask either.
