Cask-conditioned at the Bag O’Nails, Bristol 1/2/2012. Clear and copper coloured with a slight white head. Aroma of tropical fruit and grassy hops with some biscuit malts. Flavour was smiler, with plenty more fruit, solid malts and a hoppy, dry finish. Very good.

Cask-conditioned at the Three Tuns, Bristol 28/01/2012. This began life in a homebrewing competition and congratulations to Roger Parry who came up with the winner. dark brown with reddish undetones and a decent, off-white head that left plenty of lace down the glass. Berry fruit and grassy hop aroma with some roastiness in the background. Very easy drinking for the ABV, with a lot more fruit, solid malts and a lingering, bitter finish. Great stuff.

On tap at Craft. Clear gold beer, little white head. Light semi dry palate. A little mild carbonation. Nice floral hops with some bitter citrus underneath providing contrast. Finishes dry and crisp. Light but characterful.
