Cask at Cloisters. It pours clear deep amber with a medium white head. The nose is toasty, soft sweet caramel, brown bread, toasted grain and earth. The taste is bitter, brown bread, toasty, grain, wood, touch of citrus and light caramel with a dry, toasty finish. Medium body and fine carbonation. Smooth and balanced. Not an IPA for sure, but a solid bitter anyhow.

50cl bottle thanks to Andrew. Appearance - golden amber with a decent head. Nose - initial wiff of butterscotch but then grass and citrus notes with some honey behind. Taste - biscuit and citrus malt and bitter herbs. Palate - light to medium bodied with a dry malty texture and a long bitter finish. Overall - a decent pale ale.

500ml bottle from Appellation Wines. Pours clear gold, thin white head that doesn’t linger. Aromas of elderflower, light lemon going in to that pissy thing elderflower does, but not entirely unpleasantly. Taste is bitter lemon, light sweetness. Dry finish. OK. Not much wheat in evidence.
