On cask at the Grape and Grain Autumn beer festival, Crystal Palace. Honey coloured pour with a white head. Citrus, pear and caramel aroma. Citrus and caramel flavour. Quite nutty. Sharp hop bite. Not bad.

Some hops on the nose, weak bodied bitter in the palate, not much in the way of flavour.

Best of the Bays catalogue so far. An excellent well balanced beer, nice colour and palate.

On cask in Padstow - nice rich warming beer. Ideal for the wet day we had to celebrate the Jubilee. Should make this a regular.

Full pint, hand-pulled cask ale at The Bay Horse Pub. A slight haze to an amber coloured body. Good amount of white, lacing-head. Bitter-sweet citrus to the nose. Sappy taste of orange citrus in flavour with malty sweetness beneath. Quite nice (Manchester, 07.07.2012).

Cask-conditioned at the Seven Stars, Bristol 2/5/2012. Amber with a slight, off-white head. Citrus and grassy hop aroma with some rich tea malts. Flavour had more fruit, biscuit malts and a decent, bitter finish. Good.

Brown 500ml bottle, best before 23 June 2010, drank and reviewed 27 Mar 2010. Poured into a vase shaped pint glass. Semi dark, reddy, amber in colour, no head, just a mini wisp of white bubbles with a thin collar. Malted biscuits came to mind as I stuck my nose into the glass, some aromatic hop hints too. The taste was malty, pleasant and sweet for an English Bitter. The alcohol hides behind the sweetness, but sneaks up on you as the beer is consummed. Very drinkable, never heard of the brewery before, I hope I meet them again. Pity the beer didn’t manage to produce a head.
