Cask at the Steam Town Brew Co, Eastleigh, Hampshire. Pours clear golden with a small white head. Aroma of malt, hop, citrus, flowers and light grass. Medium sweetness, moderate bitterness. Towards medium body, slight oily texture, soft carbonation. This should be listed as a golden.

Cask (Bookshop Alehouse, Southampton) - Light amber in colour. Peach, grapefruit and biscuity malt in the aroma. Hoppy and zesty taste with pine, peach, grapefruit and syrup standing out. Very nice indeed.

On tap at the Old Vine. Beautiful gold colour. Aroma is perfumey with some hops. Flavour is just a big ball of hops with grass, straw and bread notes.

Cask from stillage at the Romsey Beer Emporium. Bright amber with a ring of translucent head; aroma of damp straw and English hops; light, rather than thin, with a gentle pale malt flavour; then some even gentler hops before a dry and biscuity finish. A simple, straightforward bitter, very drinkable, but not one to make you sit up and take notice.
