Cask gravity at Reading BF 09. I approached this with some trepidation as Chris brought it back to the table. Clear pale gold, thin white head. The agavve is noticeable on aroma, but not unpleasant. OK in mouth, quite hoppy just not very stingy on finish. Bit lacking in malts. Very stingy on tongue. Sweet. Just not sure.

Cask at Reading beerfest. A deep golden ale with a decent head. Lovely fresh citrus bite. I had heard good things about Pictish and really enjoyed this ale.

Cask, Crescent, Salford. Clear gold with a thin white head. Superb fragrant fresh grassy hop aroma with bags of juicy citrus, that continued into the flavour which was clean, crisp and hoppy, with melon and slight spice notes. Lingering bitter finish. Great springtime brew.

Cask at the Hobgoblin, Reading. Amber with a thin loose white head; aroma of honey, citrus and grain; flavour is of honey, lightly toasted grains and a fresh nettley herbal bitterness; leading to a long gingery finish. It works for me, very drinkable.
