Clear copper color, short head. Quite weak aroma of english hops, some caramel malts. Taste is bitter and malty, some fruity notes. Decent bitter.

Sampled cask conditioned. Amber coloured. Surprisingly neutral aroma. Dry and light bodied with a sharp late bitterness and a slightly salty finish. A decent bitter somewhat lacking in the flavour department.

Golden coloured. Nice hoppy aroma, very malty. Soft mouthfeel and balanced, bitterish finish. Possibly the best British bottled golden ale I've sampled.

Sampled cask conditioned. Nut brown. Fruity nose, medium body. Dry balanced finish with nice hop bitterness. This ale, in the borderlines between a strong bitter and a brown ale is malty, but perhaps overly complex.
