Cask at the brewery. Aroma is malty, grainy, with vague fruit. Clear brown gold. Thin creamy white head recedes. Sweet sugary fruitiness over a twiggy streak and malts. Light-medium bodied. Slick. Soft carbonation. Long somewhat astringent finish. Bland twiggy stuff masquerading as an APA. Fitting cos Springsteen is bland as well.

Cask at Egham Beer Fest. Aroma combines resin with sour fruit and grains. Opaque amber. Frothy white head. Resinous with a tart citrus edge. Marmalade. Medium bodied. Slick. Flat carbonation. Long dry astringent finish. This brewery seem to be upping their game. Decent West Coast-esque IPA.
