Half-pint, cask: The Station, Oakengates on 6th May 2014. I’m not a big fan of ’single hop’ beers but this did OK. Clear golden pour with a full head of white foam. I thought it slightly sweet with a fruity backbone and traces of a drier, citrus bitterness in the finish.

Cask at the Wellington, Birmingham. Poured a crystal clear straw colour with a round bubbly head. The aroma is citrus malt, barnyard. The flavour is medium to light bitter with a smooth malt barnyard light caramel hop bitter palate. Medium bodied with soft carbonation.

Cask @ Fox & Goose, Hebden Bridge. Golden yellow with a malt-hop character - the latter aspect being more dominant. Has a small pale ale aroma.

Dull dark straw. Thin head. Slightly appley but otherwise bland aroma, light body and same uneventful, sweetish character.

Cask @ Baum, Rochdale. Golden with a creamy head. Malt-hop fusion with both evident and it’s not too bad if you enjoy bitters.

On cask at Kelham Island Tavern, Sheffield - Yellow hazy body, lasting white head. Nose is reminiscent of some IPAs, lots of hoppy citrus in the aroma. Taste is a bittersweet concoction, a little sugary at times, with a good long finish of citrus again. Very nice.

Hand-pulled half-pint in The Station Hotel, Oakengates on 17th Feb 2014. Light golden with a big creamy white head, clear and clean looking body. The beer carries light, subtle flavours, malts just about beating the floral and spicy hops into second place. Refreshing and well made: no strong flavours or character, but it doesn’t matter, this is a delicate beer to be sipped not rushed; give the flavours a chance to impress.

NWAF 23 Jan 13. Svart. Lavt luftig skum. God sviskearoma. Søt. Smaken er tørr frukt med litt røstethet i bakgrunnen. Bra integrert. Litt tørr ettersmak.

Cask at the Bow Bar. Pours black with a minimal red tinge. Aromas of dark chocolate and coffee. Taste has more dark chocolate and coffee. Medium body, creamy texture and a long dry finish. One of the highlights of the day, a lovely beer.

On tap at the Bow Bar winter beer festival. Appearance - opaque black with just a chink of red towards the bottom of the glass. Nose - bitter dark chocolate. Taste - liquorice and more dark chocolate. Palate - medium bodied with a creamy texture and a long dry finish. Overall - stunning porter.
