Cask at the Hope Tap, Reading. Pale gold with a thick off-white head and a light sparkle. Very smooth and rich mouthfeel. Tastes of lemon, grapefruit, cut grass, leafy hops and a little vanilla. Mild bitterness. Goes down very well, refreshing yet very satisfying. Not normally a fan of Bateman's, but this is actually decent for a gold.

Cask at Batemans Visitor Center and Pub, Wainfleet, Lincs. Pours dark amber with a small off-white head. Aroma of malt, hop, light chocolate, biscuit and fruit. Medium sweetness, moderate bitterness. Medium body, oily texture, soft carbonation. A solid and enjoyable mid-strength bitter though possibly not what it once was, recall having it before and enjoying it more.
