Cask at the Brewpub. Opaque black - brown beer, good mid tan head. Palate is airy and a little soft. Very modest fine carbonation. Mild and sweetish dark malts. A little lactose like vibe here. Mild earthy coffee. Whisper of something dark and fruity. Airy finish. Very easy going and pretty suppable,

Cask at the brewpub - London. Pours clear, rich gold with a white cream crown. The aroma holds ripening orange and leaves. Medium sweet with some grainy bread, more ripe citrus, grassy bitterness. Medium bodied with fine carbonation. Pretty sturdy grassy bitterness on the finish, with some further grainy bread, a bit of orange rind. Decent ESB.

Cask at the brewpub - London. Pours clear gold with a foamy, white cap. Dank hops in the nose with dominant notes of orange and tangerine. Light to medium sweet flavor with further dank citrus, orange, faint pine, bready sugars. Light to medium bodied with fine carbonation. Good balance in the finale, lightly resinous, with solid hop character, ripe citrus, moderate pale malts. Really quite good. Nicely done.

Cask at the brewpub - London. Pours clear, bright gold with a foamy white head. Simple toasted biscuits in the aroma with mild twiggy aspects. Light sweet flavor with toasty grass bitterness and grainy bread. Light bodied with fine carbonation; good condition. OK balance to finish with bitter grass and toasted grains. Simplistic session cask gear but just fine nonetheless.

Cask at B&K, Islington on 26th October 2014. Gold with white foam and scant lacing. Lush, citric hoppiness in aroma with tangerine zest. Exquisite grapefruit in-mouth with tangerine and spiciness. A bitter, spicy and citric finish. Zingy mouthfeel and plenty of body. Excellent.
