On cask at the Daily Pint. Pours a hazed golden amber, honey color with a foamy off-white head. Aroma of hay, caramel, bread, honey, papaya, and cereal. Taste is pretty sweet bready malts with hone and a light but noticeable fruitiness. Good for your run of the mill ESB. Mouthfeel is your typical smooth cask conditioned.

On hand cask. Pours with a hazy golden orange body and a fluffy white head with great cask lacing. Aroma of grass, hay, cereal, light sweetness and a few Fuggles hops. Taste is yeasty and malty with light grass and cereal. Creamy mouthfeel, light carbonation.

This Brew courtesy of riversideAK. Wow, this is their flagship brew. Ouch. Pours copper with a bit of haze and almost no head. The aroma is mostly butter mixed with a light amount of orange hard candy and a bit of stale malts. The taste is an odd combination of sweet citrus hard candy and a cup of butter, a bit of bread and just a smidgen of pine hops.
