(Cask at Ship & Mitre, Liverpool, 26 July) Colour is golden amber with little head. Nose is fruity and hoppy with citrus (mandarin, grapefruit). Taste is fruity with citrus (grapefruit, mandarin, orange peel) and a nice long, hoppy finish. Not very complex, but nice and refreshing.

Cask handpull at Market Porter. Deep copper colour with thin beige head. I really just don’t like these earthy caramel dominated bitters. The caramel dominates too much and it is just not to my taste. Nothing wrong with it at all, but not my style of bitter.

(Bottle 50 cl) Lightly hazy pilsener golden with a tall and frothy shaving foam like head. Refined fruity, lightly perfumy nose. Rather light body with vague malty notes and a marked bitter finish. Lots of grapefruit in there too. 261205

An unclear yellow beer with an off-white leaning towards light brown head. The aroma is dusty and yeasty with hints of cinnamon mixing in. The flavor is sweet spicy and fruity with notes of cinnamon and citrus - especially lemon.

Cask at Ship and Mitre, Liverpool. Not a bad stout but it did not stand out for me. Maybe a wee bit too sweet and not enough complex malt flavours to have a second

[Cask at GBBF 2004] An orange beer with a small white head. The aroma is sweet flowery combined with notes of fruits. The flavor is sweet flowery - especially elderberryflowers is coming thru. The end is dry, but the body is thin.

Sampled cask conditioned. Pale golden, actually looks like a stale lager. Flowery hop aroma. Soapy mouthfeel, medium bodied, rather sweet and fruity. Nice hop bitterness and salty finish. Nice, but nothing too special.
