Cask at the Cock Tavern, London. Pours clear, yellow-gold with a faint, white foam head. Biscuity malt nose. Medium sweet flavor, toasty sugars, faint leaves and hay, light toasty bread. Light bodied with soft carbonation. Mild sweet finish with some rocks and hay, dirt, light dry and doughy biscuits. OK. (3.2)

Cask at the Grafton, London on 21st September 2012. Clear copper with off-white part lacing frothy head. Malty, fruity aroma with berries. The in-mouth taste is fruity with a touch of roastiness, malt and strong bitterness. Satisfying, long-lasting very bitter finish. Very well-kept pint in new pub.

Dispensed from the cask into an English half pint jug at the Sussex Arms, Twickenham Green (Jan ’12). Pours to a clear amber/copper colour with a thin white head. Subtle malty nose twinned with a light hop aroma, would say citrusy hops - grapefruit/orangey smell. Malts in the taste, but probably a little more background than the smell, also get the citrus fruit flavours in the hopping, earthy-ish but not too bitter in the aftertaste A fairly thin beer in body, but not to the detriment of my enjoyment - ample for this style/ABV!
