Cask @ Old Print Works, Wakefield, as Copper Dragon Nugget - no Greyhawk markings on the clip (as above) at all. Clear golden with a head. Has a hoppy character with a light dryness. There’s some berry-sweetness in its nose.

Sampled @ GBBF day 1. A bit hazy golden color, virtually no head. Smell and taste are moderately malty, quite hoppy, hop bitter with light pine and a hint of tropical fruits. Decent body, low to average carbonation. Not bad.

Cask at GBBF 2016 - Day 5. Pours clear gold with a frothy, white head. Light herbal and leafy hops in the nose, pale grains. Light sweet flavour with more leaves, toasty grains, light citrus peel. Light bodied with fine carbonation. Finishes with grainy malts, earth and leaves. So so.

500ml bottle as ’Copper Dragon’ Best Bitter (4% ABV): from a local Co-op store. Poured carefully into an ’Old Speckled Hen’ badged UK pint vase shaped glass at home on 22nd July 2016 during a random tasting session. Beer shared with no one! Looked good, clear and clean: amber coloured with a white, lasting head. Caramel, toffee and treacle in the malty nose: taste is also led by malty molasses, good, sharp hop bitterness in the flavours too. Obviously uses the caramel flavour to carry the brew, but I like it. My sweet tooth completely taken by it.
