Cask @ Cross Keys, Leeds. Clear brown with a small, slightly off-white creamy head. Bitter with an underlying graininess that gives it a good edge. Not too bitter at all.

Cask @ Old Wellington, Manchester. Nicholson’s Beer Festival. Golden with a small head. Floral in nose and taste, although I don’t think the beer was in great condition in all honesty. Has a sweetness attached. Has a nice easy drinking texture.

Bottle shared at Craft Clerko. It pours deep mahogany brown with a small beige head. The nose is brown bread, toasty, light caramel, wood, earth and fruit cake. The taste is smooth, malt-driven, toasty, caramel, fruit cake, light spice and with a dry finish. Medium body and soft carbonation. Simple malty beer. Not bad.

Bottle from the Oddbins Beer Shop, Blackheath. Gold pour with a white head. Honey and citrus aroma and flavour, some light sweet spice and caramel notes too. Bitter-sweet linger. Not too bad.
