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.

Cask. Half pint served in my own Beer Fest glass by one of the charming parish members@Chorlton Beer Fest (6.Jul.2012) Fantastic! Clear orange body, Bitter notes to the nose, grapefruit and prine. Quite exiting taste: quite bitter, with notes of reisin, coriander and citurs. Tobacco. Dry finish.
