Bottle from Bradwell Village Shop. Appearance - light amber with a nice fluffy head. Nose - honey going into strawberry jam. Taste - honey, nuts and oatmeal. Palate - light to medium bodied with a creamy texture and a finish that is pleasant but which could be cleaner. Overall - probably not bitter enough for the style but not bad.

Bottle from Bradwell Village Shop. Appearance - deep amber red with a nice off white head. Nose - stewed appled with light toffee at the back. Taste - more stewed apple, grape even. Apple skin and citrus through the middle. Palate - light to medium bodied with a creamy texture and a long dry finish. Overall - enjoyed this. A bit challenging but rewarding with it.

Bottle from Bradwell Village Shop. Appearance - red, orange, brown. A thin head. Nose - treacle, tobacco, cereal. Taste - more cereal and chewy treacle. Palate - close to medium bodied with a crunchy texture and a long and fairly gnarly finish but it kept me coming back for more. Overall - more like an English Strong Ale in style.

On cask at the Yorkshire Bridge by Bamford. Appearance - golden amber with a decent head. Nose - sweet malt and cake. Taste - more sweet malt then dry astringent malt on the finish. Palate - close to medium bodied with a creamy texture and a long dry finish, though a touch astringent. Overall - solid but not worth the revisit.

Tried at the red lion, bakewell. More golden ale than bitter, and fairly standard fair. Golden colour white head. Light sweet.
