Cask at The Star, Bath. Fortunate to pick up both the Black Friar and the White Friar in the same session as they are not normally made at the same time. The colour is closer to amber than gold. Plenty of aromatic hops here. More pronounced on the palate than on the nose. Very fresh and clean. Smooth mouthfeel. Maybe a touch soft but a pretty good beer.

Aug 11, 2008 Cask-conditioned at the Volunteer Rifleman’s Arms, Bath 11/08/08. Pleasant enough strong bitter, with plenty of red fruit in the aroma and flavour, some caramel and a short dry finish. Drinkable.

Aug 18, 2006 Cask at GBBF 2006. Yellow, gold with thin white head. Odd aroma with some citrus. Juicy malt in nice. Bit too sweet and not enough hop to balance.
