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.
