I did achieve a cultural activity in Carlisle earlier before my current beer tour by visiting their citadel, which they call a castle, although the main building is a Keep. Interesting enough history, mostly about keeping the Mel Gibson types from north of the border out! They might want to cross for this traditional ale, with a great hop-malt-bitter balance. It also has an easy strength.

Bottle from Beer Ambleside. Pale gold with a lasting white head and a fine but aggressive fizz. Generically fruity up front, although it did pup me in mind of Granny Smith apples. Some ginger powder comes through, and then there are floral, twiggy notes in the dry and mildly bitter finish. Not bad for the style.

Bottle from BeerGB. Appearance - golden and a wee bit hazy. White head. Nose - bready, and orange. Taste - breakfast cereal, some light fruit. Palate - light bodied but could have more bitterness given the style. Overall - so so.
