Beer number #2 tried at the sun drenched Clitheroe Beer Festival 2025. More brown than amber, it's a crisp texture bitter with a dark malt influence, smooth in the palate.

Beer number#1 tried at the Clitheroe Beer Festival 2025. Started with the strongest and possibly darkest too at the festival. Very smooth and quite milky too, subduing its strength in taste, although not so in aroma.

Half cask at Sheffield Tap. Clear golden pour, thick creamy off-white head and solid lacing. Light, biscuity aroma. Taste is bready, full and brings a touch of fruity bitterness at the finish. Creamy, almost chewy feel.

Eleventh brew sampled at the Pendle Beer Festival 2025. Not as busy as in previous years so a little cold up top in the Muni Theatre. Hoppy and easy session one. Perhaps a tad thin.

Cask @ Trades Club, Hebden Bridge. Golden-blonde with a small head. Hoppy session brew, with a nice dominant hoppiness and touches of fruit about it.
