Cask @ The Abbey. Pours clear amber, full off-white head. Aroma is fairly sweet caramel. Smooth, full, ripened fruity caramel character with a moderate sweetness, just sweet enough for me without going over board. Nice full taste to this. Good.

Cask at the White Swan, Solihull. Poured a crystal clear golden colour with a frothy white head. The aroma is caramel malt, light fruits, woody hop. The flavour is moderate to strong bitter with a smooth, dry earthy mineral malt, big dry woody hop bitter palate and a long bitter finish. Medium bodied with soft carbonation. A decent ale, but way too bitter and lacks fruit in my opinion. IPA’s are better with more carbonation too. Not so easy with a hand pulled ale. Improved a little as the beer warmed though and more fruity notes developed.
