[Cask at the Alehouse, Reading.] A hazy golden amber pour with a tight cream coloured head; aroma of roasted barley and hedgerow hops; strong English traditional hop taste, fruity with a touch of peppery spice, and a smooth butterscotch body; then a dry finish with a lingering, satisfying, bitterness. A proper ESB.

(Cask at Lyric, Soho, London, 22 May 2023) Amber colour, slightly hazy, with frothy tan head. Malty, hoppy nose with dark bread, apricots and earthy hops. Malty, hoppy taste with notes of caramel, apricots, dark bread and a fairly balanced, but slightly sharp, resiny/earthy bitterness. Medium body, quite dry. Tasty and refreshing. Quite nice.
