Cask at Tap and Can, Shrewsbury. But not at the same time as @Minutemat ! Pours a pale straw with a small white head and good lacing. The aroma has floral hops with just a hint of citrus. In the mouth it is light and refreshing, starting off fairly sweet with berry fruits to the fore. Later some bitterness comes into the equation along with traces of lemon. Finish is slightly dry. Reasonable but much the same as the million other APAs you see these days.

Cask @ Tap and Can. Clear gold appearance, small white head. Not feeling this unfortunately, beer exudes a twiggy floral nettley bitterness that's hard to finish. Shame.

Clear and golden with a lovely creamy white head and some stewed fruit and floral hops on the nose. Smooth and light/medium bodied, there's floral and slightly peppery bitterness going on before a short zesty finish

On cask @ Monty's Bar, Edinburgh. Appearance - deep golden and it eventually clears fairly well, with only a slight haze. Nose - orange and general grassiness. Taste - more of the same. Palate - light bodied and very bitter. Overall - ok.

Handpull cask at the Golden Ball, York. Light to mid-gold and mostly clear with a thin and slightly loose white head. Gentle fruity aroma, some white grape and stone fruit. Taste is very sweet at first with Pixi Stix and boiled sweet, but moving to a determined bitterness that serves to balance rather than overwhelm. Thin to medium oily body with no carbonation. Wasn't sure at first but I've certainly warmed to it.

Handpull cask at the Two-Tailed Lion, Leicester. Medium golden and a little bit cloudy. Grassy and soft citrus aroma with a good bit of gritty malt. Sweet taste with a touch of hop bitterness and some light vegetal character. Watery body, soft carbonation. Reasonably good but a bit nondescript.
