Cask gravity at Craft 100. It pours hazy amber with a small white head. The nose is toasted grain, cereal, bread, straw and dull honey. The taste is pretty simple, lightly bitter, toasted grain, cereal, earth, oiliness and light spice. Medium body, fine carbonation and oily mouth-feel. A bit grainy and sweet for my liking. Sub-standard APA in my opinion.

1st Oct 2015: cask at the Crown Inn, Oakengates Shropshire. Amber bodied beer with an off-white head that hung around. Good hop profile from the first sniff to the last drop, bitter and refreshing. Punches above it’s 3.6%ABV and has a better depth of flavour than many higher alcohol beers I have had had recently in the UK.

Cask at the mermaid st Albans. Aroma is tart red berry, cranberry, sweet caramel. Reddy re brown coloured pour with a thin off white head. Flavour is composed of tangy red berry, hint of smoke, spicy rye bread, grainy. Palate is semi sweet and tangy, lowish carbonation. Lingering little tartness and nutty malts.

Chelmsford Beer Festival. Cask. Light haze on this gold beer, a few pale cream colour bubbles. Palate is light and dry, modest fine carbonation. The pale malts are notably dry and with a surprising grey smoke streak. Little juicy citrus before a dry bitter floralness kicks in. Not getting any elderflower. Dry finish. Passable, just.

Colchester Beer Festival at the Colchester Arts Centre. Cask. Lightly hazy gold beer, a few pale cream colour bubbles. Palate is light and semi dry with decent fine carbonation. The Kaffir lime leaves come through loud and clear. Floral lime with a slight herb accent. Neutral pale malt base. Light finish brings mild lime peel bitterness. Interesting, refreshing and drinkable.

Cask at the pigs ear festival... Copper brown.. Thin tan lacing... Soft sulphur eggy nose... Soft sweet berries fruit.. Soft eggy linger... I think behind the sulphur tines is an ok fruity beer. But the sulphur doesn’t work for me
