Cask at Creaky Floorboard, Derby. Pours a CLEAR golden yellow with a small off-white head and good lacing. Not much of an aroma, but there’s hints of hops and citrus. In the mouth it is quite bitter with a hoppy tang. Flavour has mixed hops, summer fruits, some underlying malts and hints of citrus with some brainy notes coming through later. Bitterness lasts into the finish. This is rather nice.

Cask at Sun, Stafford. Pours a slightly hazy golden yellow with a greenish tinge, a small foamy almost white head and excellent lacing. The aroma has malts, caramel and oranges. In the mouth it is tending towards bitter, though with some underlying sweetness and creamy texture. Flavours are malts, floral hops, grains and herbs. Later some hints of hedgerow fruits and spices as well leading to a fruity and slightly dry finish. This is surprisingly nice.

Half-pint in Coopers Tavern, Burton-on-Trent: 17th May 2024. Slight haze in the golden pour, snow white crown on top. Decent enough and refreshing, half Lager, half Pale Ale sort of blend, mini citrus leanings.

Cask kőlsch. Adds to the smooth malty body, but loses a bit of the refreshing zip keg would bring. Nice though.
