Handpull cask at the King's Head, Leicester. Dark gold, clear with a tight white head, lots of lacing on this puppy. Light fruity and medicinal smell: antiseptic and orange peel. I was expecting an ultra-astringent taste but it's fairly balanced up to the finish, where the bitter hop oils rest on the tongue. A very English IPA-type thing.

Cask at the Sparrow, Bradford. It pours clear golden with a sturdy white cap. The aroma is biscuit, toasty grain, cereal, leather and grass. The taste is dry, bitter, biscuit, cereal, toasty grain, bit of grass, twig, leather and a twist of lemon. Average body and fine, foamy carbonation. Undeniably traditional, but enjoyable when it is as well kept as this.
