Cask half-pint at the brewpub on 7th July 2018. Light red hue to the brown body, off-white head. Basic English Bitter with a slight woody and nutty feel, nice blend of hops and malts without getting your senses too excited.

Hand-pulled cask pint in The Cock Hotel, Wellington Shropshire on 14th June 2018. Black bodied, beige pillow of foam on top. Malty and semi-sweet cinder toffee aromas, taste follows the same lines. Nice.

Cask @ Admiral Benbow, Shrewsbury. Golden with a small head. It's hoppy with a mild dryness and certainly sessionable.

Hand-pulled half-pint in The Railway, Wellington Shropshire on 3rd Oct 2016. Poured a dark brown with a ruby hint in bright light, full tan coloured head. Malts rule the roost throughout, aroma had some dark fruits and nut esters, as did the taste. Different and interesting, liked it.

23rd Sep 2016: cask half-pint at the Shrewsbury CAMRA beer festival. Drank alongside it’s sister Six Bells Karma, it was slightly darker colour, leaning towards amber, head the same white, weak affair. Less sweet and more floral, same light maltiness for a base. Not enough flavour to make it interesting or different, but not unpleasant.
