Cask at the Dragon, Worcester, 27-06-09 Poured light amber, the nose was full of vanilla and floral touches, very pleasant. Good fruity bite, there was a real whirly bitter-sweet combination going on here finishing dry and bitter. Not a lot to say about this as it was quite a crash, bang wallop beer, but bloody good stuff and it more than held its own with the two Little Ale Cart beers. A8 A4 F7 P4 Ov15 3.8
