Cask. Golden colour, small white head. Aroma is fruity, floral and mild bready malts along with some slight notes of nectar. Flavour is bready and sweet malts along with some fruity, floral and nectary notes. Finishes in a nice floral bitter way along with mild grassy notes.

Cask, handpump at Bar Fringe, Manchester, 20.01.11 Quite sweet from the off, good looker, clear warm gold in appearance with white head. Hops don’t really shine, sweetness again and a little vanilla. A6 A4 T6 P3 Ov12 3.1

Cask Handpump at the Crown Inn, Stockport 06/02/2010 Hoppy aroma. Small white head. Clear golden coloured and hoppy with a dry and slightly bitter finish.

Cask conditioned handpump The Pub Leicester (The bitterly cold in Leicester crawl). A bright gold coloured beer with a loose white head. The aroma is a touch sweet amongst the hop. Possibly a bit of honey in there? A bit of prickle in the mouth amongst that hop and sweetness again. Not a short finish but in need of more maltiness. Pretty good but the sweetness is a little off-putting.

Cask-conditioned at the Rake, Southwark 04/02/10. Deep gold in colour with a decent white head. Aroma of citrus hops, hay and sweetish malts. Easy drinking for the ABV with biscuit malt and citrus flavours, and a hoppy, dry finish. Good.
