Hand-pulled half-pint at the Railway Tavern, Newport Shropshire on 23rd March 2023. I kind of agree with Martin (the only other rating so far), it's a funny none descript sort of beer with a fairly bland nature, almost clear light golden blonde with a lasting white head. It lacks oomph and flavour with very little hop of malt action to talk about.

Half-pint, cask ale at Orange Tree. Near clear amber body, filmy layer, upper part lacing. Inviting smell of herbal hops and mid-sweet malts. Well balanced taste character of caramel malts and leady hops. Nice bittersweet finish. Well made bitter. (Hereford 17.10.2022)

På Orange Tree, Hereford. Gylden. Lavt tett skum med litt farge. Karamellaroma. Myk munnfølelse. Smaken brent karamell. Tørr bitter avslutning. Overdose med karamell - men god!

Cask at the Wellington, Birmingham. Poured a crystal clear golden colour with a thin broken white head. The aroma is grainy malt, yeasty, light citrus fruits. The flavour is moderate bitter, with a smooth, light citrus, light floral, woody hop bitter palate. Medium bodied with soft carbonation. A nice cask ale. Liked this.

Handpull cask at the Kings Head, Leicester. Mid- to dark gold and clear with a small white head. Light woody aroma with some resinous gluey notes, some buttered toast. Tastes medicinal, then slightly sweet with caramel and bubblegum, then with a slightly astringent bitterness. The bitterness stays in the long finish. certainly odd, but it's nice to have a beer that's not run of the mill.

Cask at Bird in Hand, Stafford (not listed in RateBeer). Well the brewery and Untappd seem to think this is a bitter, so that’s what I’ve added it as. But I think it’s more like a pale ale. Anyway, pours a golden yellow with a small white head. Has a slight aroma of oranges. Undistinguished in the mouth, with just some general fruitiness. Finish is slightly bitter though. After rating a beer with too many flavours (Slaters 1995 – 25 years), this is a beer with no flavour. Bland is the word !

Handpull cask at the Salmon, Leicester. Very light gold, clear with a thin off-white head. Smells of butterscotch, some toffee, some soft citrus notes. Bittersweet hoppy notes in the initial taste with a chalky bitter finish. Lime zest, buttered toast and toffee in the aftertaste. Pretty messy but drinkable.
