Cask-conditioned at the Bag ONails, Bristol 23/2/09. Amber with a slight, off-white head. Sweetish aroma with a hint of pear drops. Flavour had plenty of caramel, some barley sugar and an astringent finish. Not that good.

With a name like that, I just had to give it a try. Naked, light golden body. The aroma is a kind mix between fruits and tobacco. Some malt and pineapples in the taste giving the beer a touch of marmalade. Moderate bittersweet ending. Hidden alcohol. In spite of the alcohol strength, it feels a bit diluted in the mouth (half pint, shared with Geir at The Great British Beer Festival 08.08.2008).

Cask-conditioned at the Bag ONails, Bristol, 18/8/08. This hit the spot across the board. Deep, clear gold in colour, with a small yet tight white head that left plenty of lacing down the glass. Beautifully balanced, with juicy citrus hops supported by a hint of pine resin, accompanied by slightly doughy, fruity malt. The finish was dry, without being mouth-puckering. I could have drunk this all night, and certainly did long enough to regret it. Excellent all round.

Cask-conditioned at the Bag O’Nails, Bristol 18/3/08. Pale gold with a decent white head. Bog, hoppy aroma of tropical fruit, flowers and pine resin. Flavour started slightly sweet before more citrus and pine hops introduced a long, dry finish. Very good.
