Cask conditioned at Banbury Beer Fest ’11. Amber with white head. I like the Acorn single hop series, they do showcase the hop pretty well, this is quite a bitter type, dry, mouth sucking, crisp and full. Shazza said it was banging and lush.

On cask, gravity at Banbury Beer Festival, 07.05.11 Pours light amber and not really golden as suggested in the tasting notes, there is also a smattering of white bubbles dancing across the surface. In the mouth this is really thrusty and bitter with a good hoppy bite. Great beer, dry, fruity and just a great hoppiness throughout. A7 A4 T8 P4 Ov15 3.8

Cask, The Devonshire Cat, Sheffield, UK. Slightly hazy amber, interesting hop aroma, resin/pine. Bitter, with some fruity notes. Nice beer, interesting with the hops but otherwise standard.
