Cask at The Kelham Island Tavern, Sheffield, ’The Peoples Republic of South Yorkshire’ on the Valley of Beer Day 16-08-08 Pours light gold with white head, soft gentle citrus, gentle malt flavours, its ok but comes up quite short against the Hornbeam and Pictish in this pub. A5 A3 T6 P3 Ov12 2.9 Had this again on Cask, handpump at Ye Olde Cheshire Cheese, Castleton, Peak District, Derbyshire 20.09.10. Pours very pale gold, almost straw colour nice white head, looks superb with a great clarity. Nicely bitter, but with a very good vanilla flavour, Burton nose, some citrus streaking through. Decided to re-rate a significantly better than I recalled from before. A7 A5 T7 P4 Ov14 3.7

Bottle, Carringtons, Manchester. Ooarr ooar, I can drive a tractor etc etc Country puns aside this isn’t a bad effort at all. Very fragrant hoppy aroma. Malt and hop tussles for posession in the flavour and the finish is a lingerer. Wouldn’t say it was especially light or lager like as it says in the blurb though.

Cask cellar run at Ship & Mitre April Fest 08. Disturbing clear deep red colour. It’s a fruity bitter, some raspberry, but it could be because it’s read. But I have to say, yes, raspberry, a bit pippy. Decent bitter malts to be honest and very drying hop. A bit bizarre, cos of the colour, but you know what? This is ok. Fruit does give it a lift.

Cask handpull at Ship & Mitre April Fest 08. Reddish copper colour. Quite a perfumed aroma. That’s a pretty tasty perfumed bitter. Decent hop, bit of white pepper. Good and tasty.

Bottled. A deep red beer with a thin tan head. The aroma is sweet with primary notes of over ripe fruits as well as lighter notes of metal. The flavor is sweet malty and again dominated by over ripe fruit. The body is thin - no wonder at 4.5% ABV.
