Cask at CPK - London. Pours clear gold with a small, creamy white head. The nose has a little tangy citrus, butterscotch. Medium sweet flavour, some grass, dough, toasted sugars, more. Itteracorch, a little carpet. Medium to full bodied, a little oily and chewy, with fine carbonation. Warming finish, sticky, some earth, toasted sugars. Fairly mediocre.

Bottle from Crockford Bridge Farm Shop, Addlestone. Soft scented aroma - a mixture of dough, honey and floral elements. Light amber. A tad hazy. Thin but creamy white head. I usually this seemed a bit raw but it grew on me. Sweet fruit sugars, honeydew melon. An underlying citrus bitterness. Light-medium bodied. Slick. Soft carbonation. Abrupt finish. Guess being on it's side in a vibrating fridge didn't help matters. One it settled it grew on me. Had thought of adding it as a Gold but read a description that I now cannot locate which mentioned US hops and I'd say it's not just a basic Gold take on a Pale Ale.
