Hand-pulled pint in The White Horse, Upton (Norfolk) on 26th Oct 2013. As the name might suggest, this was golden in colour: the small white covering stayed around for a while before retreating into a wisp and collar formation. A little more Pale Malts than anything else in both the aroma and taste: semi-sweet with a mild citrus note in the background. No huge flavours but a pleasant enough blend, refreshing and gulp-able.

Deep golden color. Malty sweetness and apricots in the nose. Fairly sweet but not that interesting. Ok.

Gravity poured pint at the 2013 CAMRA AGM in Norwich on 20 Apr. An off-white foaming head sat on top of this good looking dark brew, deep ruby red when held to a light source, otherwise a very dark brown colour. Dark fruits and malty molasses blend together nicely to give this beer a pleasant aroma and taste. Not the heaviest bodied stout about, but this was fine and suited the flavours and alcohol level just right: a well make and tasty brew.
