Cask @ the Crescent, Manchester. Blonde. Butter and flowery hops in the aroma. Buttery, but also a firm earthy hopbitter flavor, banging on in the aftertaste. Diacetyl all over, therefore disappointing.

Cask at Merton Summer Beer and Cider Festival 2009 18-07-09 Pours gold, good clarity and with a nice white head, looked very good but in the head to head with the most similar beer here namely Millstone Tiger Rut it was beaten on looks. Aroma is soft lemon and a touch floral. Taste is citrussy good fruitiness, not as crisp as the Millstone but tasty all the same, finish is a touch drying. A6 A4 F6 P4 Ov12 3.2

Cask by air pressure dispense at The Bow Bar. Pours a half pint with no head and an amber coloured body. Mildly hops to the nose. Hints of caramel malts joining a rounded taste of hop bitterness. Creamy mouthfeel [Edinburgh, 26.10.2008].

From cask at Cloisters. Pours almost clear and golden orange with a small off-white head. Aroma is slight butterish, light fruity and mild sweet. Flavour is distinct hoppy with a mild fruity note. Bitter and fruity finish. A bit too bitter and dry for me.
