Cask at The Anchor, Digbetth, Birmingham. Poured a clear straw with a frothy white head. The aroma is light malt hop. The flavour is light bitter with a light creamy malt hop bitter palate. Light bodied with soft carbonation. It’s light in every way and not particularly satisfying.

Cask, gravity at the end of the day at Bucks County Show, Thursday 29th August 2013 Pours dark gold with a touch of haziness not much head, like the Growler Gladness this was just a tad warm. Uncomplicated reasonable session golden bitter, that needed a little more bite and crisp hoppiness to really shine; however it was fine, the bitterness was on the easy going safe side.
