Cask (@King’s Arms, Hawkshead): Golden, creamy small head, that sticks prettily to the glass; distinctive hoppy nose with a certain fruitiness; distinctive dry bitter flavour, light bodied; mild - lingering - bitter-hoppy finish, balanced by a little sweetness in the very end. Good stuff....

(bottle) Hazy, dark amber colour with a mid-sized tanned foamy head. Slightly yeasty and moderately toasted malty aroma with notes of bread and subtle fruity and herbal hops. Slightly bitter flavour, light to medium bodied with a calm carbonation. Toasty malty and bready base with a lighter citrus-fruity edge; quite dry and slightly bitter finish and toasty finish. 28.VII.10

Bottle, 13C. Clear light amber with a small light beige head. Almost still. Fruity aroma - mainly pears - with flowers and a little earth. Light texture. Gently sweet with some toffee. Very fruity and floral with a light spiced bitter finish. Not very bitter but it lingers on and on - also leaves an odd feeling on the teeth that I suppose is the chalkiness some other people have mentioned). Refreshing and a solid example of an delicate ordinary bitter that has bottled pretty well. But not that special.

[Cask at the Black Bull Inn, Coniston] Tastes like watered down cherry liqueur - sickly sweet and rather unpleasant.
