Medium creamy head. Clear pale yellow body. Light fruity spicy aroma with floral notes. Dry-sweet fruity floral wooden taste with resiny grape notes. Mid-bodied. Mild, flat, soft mouthfeel. Dry floral dandelion aftertaste with lemongrass and herbs and grape notes. Peppery cedar wood finish. Very nice, initially, gets a little sharp and bitter after a while. (0.284l cask at The Punch Bowl, York.)

Magpie. Clear gold beer, nice off white head. Palate is softish and semi dry. Mild fine carbonation. A little thin creamy malt. Very nice lemon, semi sweet and floral and a tiny bit herbal. Semi dry finish. Pretty much does what it says on the tin but it’s a really good tasting beer and very drinkable.

bottle - hazy light amber color, lingering tan head, and a caramel malt aroma... taste is mostly sweet malt with some malt bitterness lingering on the palate. It’s okay. Easy drinking.

On gravity at the Commercial Rooms (JDW), Bristol April 2013. Golden with a slight white head. Easy drinking, with some sweetish, biscuity malts and a touch of fruit, before a decent bitter finish. Good.
