On cask at SIBA BeerX - A late addition, not in the programme. Pale straw yellow body, light white head. Nose is a soft IPA style citrus, some grapefruit and spicy oranges. Taste though is a watered down version of this, and lets itself down a little bit here. Clean finish and a medium body.

On caskat Cloisters. Appearance - black but chinks of brown. Nice head. Nose - elusive but some very dry roast and liquorice coming through. Taste - more of the same and some dark chocolate too. Palate - medium bodied with a creamy texture and a fairly fresh finish. Overall - good stout if a bit quiet on the nose.

Bradford Beer Festival. Very pale yellow-green in colour. Light textured ale with as small hoppy nose but a better stated fuller fruity flavour.

Hand-pulled half-pint in The Station Hotel, Oakengates on 17th Feb 2014. Pours a lovely golden hue with a good white crown. This is a 50/50 type brew of equal flavours and aromas with both the hops and malts enjoying themselves. There is a dry hop finish but otherwise the brew really is a blend that struggles to give any overriding character or flavouring. OK but lacks individualism to set it apart.
