Cask @ Magnet, Stockport [011114]
Straw, clear, dense white head, some lacing
Aroma of light citrus, light zest, dab of lemon
Taste of light soft pale malts, some bitter citrus, slight lemon, think there is some English hop in there as well
Palate - Light body, quite bitter, light sweet pale malt background, bit oily. Finish as main flavour, a bit dry, bitter finish.
Overall - Easy going. Condition is great.

Cask @ Navigation Tavern Beer Festival. Mirfield. Yellow-blond with a creamy head. Its strength is there but not too overbearing with a soured citrus aroma and taste that creates a fair bitterness.

Cask at CBC Clerkenwell - London. Pours clear russet-brown with a fine, creamy beige head. Pleasant aroma with lightly aged berries and touches of brown bread. Light sweet flavor with lightly toasted malts and grains, hints of dusty cocoa, mild leafy bitterness, leathery berries. Light jodied with fine carbonation; good condition. Nicely balanced to finish with fruity and bready sweetness, and offsetting dry leafy bitterness. Decent.

On cask at Kelham Island Tavern, Sheffield - Hazy golden body, thin white head. Nose has a musty aroma, like damp wood, with citrus and flowers. Pot-pourri almost. Taste is light, fresh and dry at the end giving a long bitter mouth clacking finish.

Cask at the Wellington, Birmingham. 4.9%. Poured a clear dark brown with a round bubbly light tan head. The aroma is roasted malt, dry earthy peat, smoke. The flavour is medium to light bitter with a light malt, hop spice liqourice palate. Medium to light bodied with average carbonation. A lovely beer but maybe just a touch too light.

Cask handpull at The Berry Walmer. Dark brown beer lasting cream beige head. Getting towards end of the barrel I feel. Some milk chocolate and roast on the aroma. Some mint in the mouth. Not great
