7th November 2023, two half-pints, hand-pulled in the lovely Blood Bay, Ludlow (it's a mock Victorian Ale House). Nice clean copper body, off-white crown that hung around on both halves. Malty with an orchard fruitiness and lingering hop bitterness, liked it!

Two halves, hand-pulled in the lovely Blood Bay, Ludlow on 7th November 2023. Nice looking beer, clean golden colour with a snow white head on both pours. Not as full as the Taverner and weaker in ABV, but it still had a healthy malt and hop content with a light fruity flavour behind the malty base.

Cask-conditioned, at the Bag O'Nails, Bristol, 31 May 2023. Copper in colour with a slight, off-white, head and brilliantly clear. A sweetish bitter, with ripe and chewy malts, touch of fruit, leafy hops and a lingering, bitter, finish. Enjoyable.

Cask (Sandford Park Alehouse, Cheltenham) - Deep golden. Malty aroma with notes of wort. The taste is hoppier than I was expecting with notes of citrus, bread and some earthy notes.

Cask-conditioned at the Pelican, Gloucester 24 April 2023. Golden in colour, with a moderately-sized, white, head. Leafy hops, white pepper, some stone and berry fruit character, rich, biscuity malts, leading to a moderately bitter finish. Good.

Handpull cask at the Blue Boar.reddish brown with almost a purplish hue. Smattering of beige/khaki head. Malty aroma with some berry and some cola nut. Taste is nicely balanced with sweetness cut by hoppy bitterness toward the long finish. Full body, soft carbonation. A delicious traditional beer.
