[Cask at the Alehouse, Reading.] A bright pale amber pour with a loose white head; herbal hop aroma; lip smacking, full of resinous green hops with a sweet grainy body; then a gentle, lengthy herbal bitterness with a touch of yeast. An English blonde that looks good and tastes good.

19/7/2024. Cask at the 2024 Chelmsford Summer Beer & Cider Festival. Pours dark amber brown with a small frothy off-white head. Odd aroma of curry powder more than the expected maple. There was no food contamination involved. Others in the group got it too, not just me. Tasted okay but the nose wasn’t good.
