Cask at the Tiny Tavern, Lincoln. The look of a proper old Bitter, not a golden beer trying to be a bitter. Deep amber golden colour with an off white head. Aroma and taste are malty caramel sweet to light bitter. Nice classic.

Cask @ Bridge Bier Huis, Burnley. Very dark with a creamy-frothy head. Has a light roasted nose with a similar taste, and is quite a full bodied mild.

Cask at Smithfield, Derby. Pours chrome yellow with minimal off-white head. Not much of an aroma, just some generic citrus notes. In the mouth it starts off sweet with flavours of grains and pine. Fairly quickly though comes a massive does of floral hops to swamp everything, though citrus notes can still be detected. Finish is quite bitter. This is OK.

cask sample at GBBF Winter. Pale golden pour with a thin white head. Aroma is hoppy, floral, soapy. Taste is light bready malts with a brisk, biting hoppiness. An oily feel to this alos. Didin't quite work for me.

Cask at Brunswick, Derby. Pours a golden amber with a small frothy white head and good lacing. Citrus is the mainstay of the aroma with grapefruit and tangerine. In the mouth it is initially sweet and wtaery, but them graduates to bitter. Flavour has citrus and summer fruits with some underlying caramel and hints of ginger. Finish is rather sticky – and not in a good way. It’d OK but not for me really.

Cask @ Beerheadz, Grantham. Clear amber-brown with a head. It has very tasty brown malts with some grain involved here too, and a low bitterness.
