Cask at The Rock, Chiddingfold. Finally tracked down this Protz 300 tick. Pretty indistinct aroma - dark chocolate, herbal. Black with some cola tints in the light. Thin but creamy off-white head. Light bitter, with a sugary chocolate sweetness. Returns to a low key bitterness into the finish. Liqourice and nuts. Medium bodied. Relatively slick but still feels watery. Flsat carb. Long finish. I guess it's more interesting than some of thoe bland British porters I come across but not as comolet a porter as I expected. Aftertaste ain't great.

Draught at the Gallipot Inn. Slightly citrusy but not overly coming through in the taste. Classic cask ale task yet gentle on the palate. Very light / watery. Could go the distance for a good session (but not sure you’d want to..)

Cask at GBBF 2015, day 4 - London. Pours clear gold with a rich, frothy white head. A little farty on the nose, with plenty of pale bread, hay and light citrus. Light sweet flavor with bready pale malts, white bread, biscuits, faint bitter straw. Light bodied with fine carbonation; pretty good condition. Finishes fairly sweet, with more bready pale mats, vague citrus, lemon, minimal hop character. Fine.

4.2% Cask gravity at Planet Thanet BF 2015. Clear gold lasting white head. Yeast on aroma good pale malt biscuit in the mouth. Quite a tasty malty pale ale. Not much hop on finish but a little sting. Pretty good. Interesting pale ale.

Chelmsford Summer Beer Fest. Cask. Almost clear gold beer. Bubbly white head. Palate is light, semi dry and crispy. Light malt sweetness, touch of honey. Nice mellow orange marmalade. Little floralness. Let down by some sulphur off notes. Drinkable though. Light semi dry finish.
