Handpull cask at the Salmon, Leicester. Mid-brown, hint of purple. Translucent with a medium-sized buff head. There's coffee in the aroma, sure, but lots of plum, hedgerow, a smidge of chocolate. Sweet taste, again a good dollop of plum. Tongue-coating bitterness on the finish. Body is a bit thin but there's some soft carbonation that lifts it up. A little bit of a revelation is this.

Cask at Cromwells, Shrewsbury. Pours golden yellow with minimal off-white head. The aroma is mainly malts with a hint of ginger. In the mouth it lies somewhere between sweet and bitter with mixed hops which gradually come to dominate. Some honey too and traces of malts and herbs leading to a slightly bitter finish. Itβs reasonable but nothing special.

Cask at Tapps, Llandudno. Aroma is predominantly malty with an almost hazy citrus element. Clear copper gold. Creamy white head. Flavourwise it's Light-medium bitter. Citrus and quinine. Sweet fruity hints nto the finish. Light-medium bodied. Slick. Soft carbonation. Long dry slightly astringent finish. A trad brewery playing with US hops. Easy drinking and inoffensive but the hops just feel underutilised.

Clear pale gold with a frothy / creamy white head and a cereal malt aroma, with a touch of lemon. Creamy smooth, lemon biscuits flavour with some floral hop and a hint of honey ahead of a dry, very slightly bitter finish
