Commercial Description:
Cask; Regular. Also available in 18 and 36 pint containers direct from the brewery and in bottles.
Notably hoppy ale which is light to medium-bodied, clean-tasting, refreshingly dry, with a balancing sweetness. Citrus, pale malt aroma and dry, bitter finish. Consistent. Amber gold in colour.

Copper brown, steady small white head. Nose has English hops, flowery aroma of trefoil. Mouthfeel is thin and watery. Good hoppy aftertaste hits in the finish. Basic good real ale but much too thin.

Cask conditioned @ Star Inn, Bath. Light copper. Solid malt feel and unadventurous but tasty leafy hops well balanced.

[668-20070923] Cask @ Bag O’ Nails (Bristol, BR). Vinegar malt aroma has an earthy spice background and "cheese on toast with a bit of HP sauce" rounding things off. Clear, amber orange body with quick white bubbles. Candied ham base flavour also has off-peach and earthy meat notes. Medium body. This certainly does ring a few bells.

Cask at GBBF 2007. A hazy golden beer with a thick orange head. The aroma is sweet malty with a fine grassy note. The flavor is sweet malty wtih notes of caramel, leading to a dry bitter finish.

Healthy hazy blonde pour crowned by a solid 2cm white foam that mostly lasts. Grainy, grassy nose with fresh cereal flavours. Fruity passion fruits (kiwi notably) undertones grow underneath. Good, honest medium body. A fun drink that remains simple, but what is there is not encountered in every other cask ale.
