On cask at Kelham Island Tavern - Another yellow bodied ale with a thin white head. Nose is hay, a bit of citrus and spruce. Taste is clean, almost lager-like, with a crisp finish. Quite a pleasant session ale.

Cask at The Anchor, Digbeth, Birmingham. Poured a crude oil black colour with a frothy tan head. The aroma is weak, dry, malty and with fruity notes. The flavour is medium bitter with massive coffee, dark chocolate, malt and some rich fruit with a hint of spicy bitterness on the palate. A super beer packed with flavour that really grew on me.

Cask at the Wellington Sheffield. It pours clear golden yellow with medium white head. The nose is fresh citrus...grapefruit, lime, straw and dough. The taste is grapefruit, lime, pomello, light bitterness, touch of spice, floral notes and straw with a dry, pithy finish. Medium body and soft carbonation. Drinkable and rounded hoppy golden.

Cask at The Anchor, Birmingham. Poured a dark brown colour with a broken tan head. The aroma is fruity but a little weak. The flavour is medium to weak bitter with bags of smooth malt and fruit. The palate is lovely and smooth and packed full of flavour. There is even a hint of sourness in the aftertaste. Anyone who appreciates good ale will enjoy this.
