Commercial Description:
Cask; Regular.
Excellent body. Hops, malt and fruit combine to give a well balanced, bitter-sweet flavour.

Cask Conditioned at The Beer Engine, Newton St Cyres, Devon. Pale Amber with light bubbly head. Thin maltiness with a tea like flavour and on the dry side. Low on impact, but great as a session bitter.

Cask@Dartford BF. Slightly sulfuric nose. Pretty bland and grainy/edgy in taste, really not much else to say, a below average English bitter.

Beer # 13 at Dartford Beer Festival with SilkTork and Duff. A gold coloured standard bitter. The aroma has a hint of malt, but nothing very assertive. The flavour, again has a little malt and a little bitterness, but, again, not a lot of impact. Dry finish, but not a lot of crisp bite. A perfectly reasonable session beer, but nothing get too excited about. Although the marks are relatively low, this beer is entirely fit for the purpose intended. Cask (gravity dispense).

Dartford Fest. Gravity. Dry session bitter. Decent enough but lacked character.
