Bottle from ASDA, Manchester. Clear copper-amber with no head. Sweet malty ale, although never too stated with its malts, nor in its honey flavourings.

Pint on tap at The Railway, Buxton. Clear amber beer with creamy white head. High carbonation. Grainy, malty nose. Fine mouthfeel, like expensive mineral water. Nice lacing. Taste is lightly bitter, finish is malty leading to tinny bitterness. Nice and drinkable in the sunshine today.

Pint on tap at the Norfolk Arms, Glossop. Handpump. Still pale amber beer with a thin creamy white head. Very slight haze. Nice lacing. Nose is lightly hoppy and malty. Light body, slight bitterness. Finish is more bitter with late malt. Not bad, a bit lightweight but not without its charms.

Bottle at home. A very bitter and "wheaty" golden ale that was welcome following a birthday tea for my middle daughter of Dominos pizza. It cut nicely through all of the grease and salt! A pleasant colour, no real head, but a nice uncompromising bitterness. My relationship with wheaty beers is odd, I love them or hate them and I am not sure why. Is it the beer or the occasion?
