Dry, light pithiness on the back. Palate - creamy and light to medium bodied. Dry, bitter finish. Overall - decent.

Bottle from the Food Shop in Dartington. Appearance - amber with attractive lacing. Nose - crunchy biscuit and toffee. Taste - caramel biscuit this time. Palate - rich and medium bodied. Dry sweet but roasty finish. Overall - another solid bitter, I suppose just about an ESB.

Bottle from the Food Shop in Dartington. Appearance - amber with attractive lacing. Nose - toffee, biscuit, light citrus. Taste - more of the biscuits, topped with caramel this time. A hint of orange. Palate - light to medium bodied. Crunchy middle and finish. Overall - a solid bitter (though I note loaded as a golden ale).

Bottle from the Food Shop in Dartington. Appearance - deep amber with a pleasant off white head. Nose - brown bread, possibly going rye bread. Light spice. Taste - sweet caramel note up front, then honey going into more brown bread. Palate - creamy and medium bodied. The finish could be fresher but not too bad. Overall - ultimate pale ale? Perhaps in another universe. Not even sure it's a pale ale.

[Cask at the festival at the Bull, Barkham.] A pale chestnut pour with a tight cream head; malty aroma; bittersweet malty taste with a biscuity body and some fruit; then a Garibaldi biscuit finish. A rather good bitter.

Gylden brun klar med lavt beige skum. Lukter lett brent karamell og honning. Lett. Smaker søt honning og noe korn før chilien kommer og overtar. Middels lang.
