imdownthepub (8470) - Banbury, Oxfordshire, ENGLAND - NOV 14, 2012
Bottled, 330ml at The Beer Tree, Banbury. Gold with slight white head. Another thin, sweet beer unfortunately, fruity, wet cardboard with a sligh stale note. The hops never really show through the sugary note. Dull.

downender (5186) - Bristol, Gloucestershire, ENGLAND - MAY 7, 2012
Bottle. Amber with a decent, off-white head. Aroma of orange, hedgerow fruit and grassy hops. Solid malt flavours with some more fruit and a long bitter finish. Enjoyable, streets ahead of Wadworth’s standard beers.
