Cask-conditioned at the Seven Stars, Bristol 6/5/2014. Amber with a slight, off-white head. Tropical fruits and mandarin oranges, grassy hops, a touch of biscuit malts, leading to a decent, bitter finish. Good.

Cask @ Dirty Dicks, Halifax. Lighter brown bitter with a touch of amber and a smooth head. Has a grainy bitterness that’s fairly stated.

Hazy amber beer, tidy pale cream coloured head. Palate is smooth and dry with fine carbonation. Floral start then some fairly bitter lemon and grapefruit peel, tangy too. Light creamy malt underneath, gets sweeter before the semi dry finish. Strong bitter linger. Fairly bitter overall.

Hazy gold beer, big pale cream coloured head. Palate is light, airy and mildly crisp, semi dry. Very mellow sweet malt, touch of evaporated milk. Hops are pithy orange and sweet floralness. Dry pine and a dry finish. Not hanging together for me, a bit messy - especially the sweet milk.

Oldham Beer Festival. Golden with a small head. It’s a higher bitterness ale with fruit evident but by no means dominant in its character.

Bottle, Carringtons, Chorlton. Clear dark brown pour crowned with the merest of tan heads. Fragrant nose of roast, dark choc, hop and berry fruit. Gentle carbonation and smooth mouthfeel. Flavour started out sweet with powdery choc and roast predominating alongside some steadily building hop bitterness which lingered long into the finish. Decent Black IPA.

Cask at The Swan Inn - Liverpool. Pours clear gold with a frothy white cap. Fairly bright and juicy citrus in the nose, some dry hay, biscuity pale malts. Medium seeet flavor with lemon, tangerine, bitter grass and hay, slight grain husks and straw. Medium bodied with fine, softened carbonation; good condition. More citrusy hops and grassy bitterness in the finishing with balancing pale, dry and lightly biscuity malts. Respectable.
