(Cask at Ship & Mitre, Liverpool, 24 July) Colour is dark amber with a frothy head. Nose is fruity and hoppy with a nice grapefruit aroma. Taste is fruity and actually very hoppy with loads of grapefruit character, almost piney. Balanced sweetness. Long and very bitter finish. Feels very much US style and a very nice brew.

Cask gravity at Kent BF 2006. Chestnut colour with lasting beige head. Malty and red berries aroma. Yes, malty in mouth too. Some hoppy dryness on end, but mostly a dry medium malt bitter. Fine.

Cask gravity at Kent BF 2006. This was labelled as Lakeland Gold, but at the same ABV. Deep gold, lasting bubbly off white head. Very flowery hop aroma. Really lovely beer. Bit astringent, but hop is fantastic. A bit like a US style IPA. This is my kind of beer.

The aroma is full of malts with a slight note of alcohol that was not unpleasant. The nose also has hints of sweet caramel. The aroma is stronger than the flavor which is malty, but not overly sweet. The beer is bitter almost at the start of the sip. The palate is crisp and clean with a thin to medium body. Moderate carbonation. The pour was cloudy copper with a short, tan head.
