imdownthepub (7473) - Banbury, - MAY 10, 2008
Cask conditioned at Banbury Beer Fest ’08. Gold to amber with white head. Decent hoppy bitter if slightly on the sweetish side, touches of lychees in a perfumed hoppy body. Good enough for a session ale.

Bottle. Yellow with a small head. Bitterness dominates with some hops present. Nice bitter but nothing out of the ordinary.

chriso (7065) - London, Greater London, ENGLAND - MAY 5, 2008
Cask (handpump) at the Fly In The Loaf, Liverpool, April 2008. Nice pale golden amber colour. Creamy head. Clean and fresh with some citrus, a smattering of spicy hop character and a biscuity malt backing. Pleasant drinking. Nothing too much beyond that beyond that but eminently fit for purpose. Despite the pale colour this is more of a bitter than a golden ale.

harrisoni (10070) - Ashford, Kent, ENGLAND - APR 25, 2008
Cask cellar run at Ship & Mitre BF, Liverpool. Gold, no head. It’s an ok golden bitter, not huge on the citrus. Balanced, bit watery in mouth. Hop finish is decent enough. Actually it’s ok, good flavours. Balanced session beer.
