Cask handpull at Lower Red Lion, St Albans. Gold, lasting white head. Pleasant easy drinking strong golden beer. Not amazing, but competent. Some pear drop.

Cask at Merton Summer Beer Festival 06-07-07. This beer poured a light golden colour with a pretty bubbly white head topped off with an aroma of gentle hops. The taste started with a quick burst of vanilla that then subsided and in fact I never picked up again but was followed by pleasant fruitiness and nice malty flavours a lovely beer that was very popular and the first to sell out.
