From cask at Albert’s Chop House, Manchester, 07.05.15. Clear, pale golden. Huge, dense and persistent off-white head. Moderate aroma, with some inviting citrus. Similarlybrefreshing taste, with decent bitterness.

Cask @ Old Black Bull, Preston. Golden-blonde with a creamy head. Has a light berry sweetness in its nose with a more neutralised, balanced taste. Certainly an easy drinking golden session ale.

Cask @ Ape and Apple, Manchester. Glowing copper-amber with next to no head. Has a sweet syrup smoothness, although not overly stated in its sweet syrup taste - however it is the dominant character of this ale. Sweet nose.

Cask-conditioned at the Charles II, Worcester, 23/7/2014. Deep gold with a tight, white, head. Light aroma of hay with a touch of leafy hop. Easy, sweet, drinking, with some jarring butter in the finish. Not for me.

Cask @ Ring O’ Bells, Halifax. Amber with a glow and a smooth head. Has a very pleasant texture, albeit somewhat thin. Has a small malt-hop character but apart from being smooth in the palate has little else of note.
