Draft at GBBF 2013 - London. Pours clear yellow with a light, white cream head. Straight-ahead golden ale here, with light dry dough and hay on the nose. Light sweet flavour with fine lemon rind bitterness, more doughy pale malts. Light bodied with low carbonation. Light dry dough finish with restrained lemon rind. Very nice. Good balance.

Dark copper coloured with a creamy head. There’s some grain in the flavour but it gets lost in the thin body. Slightly sweet with a bushy aroma.

Cask at the Stag & Hounds, Binfield. Pale straw with a thin white head; lacklustre malty aroma; sticky sweet malt flavours with some orchard fruit; and a weak, watery, finish. Very disappointing.
