The Sun Inn summer beer festival, Kelvedon. Cask. Light haze on this deep red amber beer, tidy pale cream colour head. Palate is light and dry with modest fine carbonation. The dark malts are light in bodt but bring decent roast. Touch of coffee. Modest dark fruits and red berry fruits. Trace of hop spice. Hop bitterness kicks in before a light dry finish. Bitter linger. Flavoursome.

Chelmsford Winter Beer Festival. KEGS. Cask. Lightly hazy amber beer, thin pale cream colour head. Palate is light, semi dry and pretty crisp from good fine carbonation. Light sweetish malts, little caramel. Very mild. Hops are slightly bitter and with a modest orange citrus and peel. Finishes crisp and semi dry. The very good condition and crispness make this pretty drinkable.

GBBF. Hazy amber beer, little white head. Light palate, a little dry. Citrus marmalade hops - trace of lemon. Semi dry finish. Decent enough but could do with some condition.

Cask at the GBBF - 08/08/12. Golden with a small white head which retained well. Great fresh hop aroma, citrus notes and a little grass. The hops were a lot more toned down in the taste which was a shame, a little grain and pale malt. Medium bodied with a bitter dry finish.
