Cask@The Mudlark (near London Bridge). Golden colour, small white head. Aroma is floral, honeyish, mild bready malts as well as some slight herbal notes. Flavour is being quite much the same with some mild spicyness as well as some resiny notes.

Cask @ White Lion, London. RBESG 2011. Pours golden with a small white head. Fruit, hay, grain and citrus. A bit of dust. Thin. Ok

On tap at Euston Tap. I hate it when your hand held devise crashes during a lengthy rate where you are being quite interesting and describing the beer well. But it did happen so this is the shorter less composed version. Its good and in the mould of Marble Pint but more bitter and less well balanced but the finish is excellent.

Cask @ The crown, Soho W1. Pours a pale yellow color with a small white head. Has a fruity malty hoppy aroma. Fruity malty hoppy citrus flavor. Has a fruity malty hoppy bitter citrus finish.

Cask (RBESG 2011, London) at White Lion. Clear yellow - white head. Peachy, fruity, abricot, light bitterness, citrus, light malty, ok hoppy.

cask at brie louise ... hazy yellow ... thin white head ... soft light lemon nose ... big light grapefruit front ... burt sweetened grapefruit ... little blood orange ... juicy really nice

RBESG August 2011, White Lion. Hazy golden with a lasting white head. Grassy and herbal hop aroma with grainy malt. Dry and malty flavour with grassy hops and a good bitterness

Cask conditioned at The Crown (Nicholsons) Oxford. Greenish gold with white head. Good dry light bitterness, leafy hop, fresh, a light peppery note. Pleasant enough.

On cask (handpump) at the Rake on 13 April 2011. After being very impressed with a number of low ABV but extremely hoppy beers recently - Brodies Brain Wave and Redemption Trinity spring to mind - Camden Town are the latest London-area brewery to get in on the act. And it’s a real winner. Pale gold in colour. Slightly hazy. The flowery, leafy, juicy, tropical fruit hop burst makes an immediate impact on the nose - I’d be very surprised if there weren’t some Nelson Sauvin in here. That impression carries through into the flavour profile but, unlike some of the intensely flowery low beers I’ve tried recently (which can tend towards soft and even slightly flabby in the mouthfeel) this has a little steely bite to provide more grip and firmness. Not a huge amount but just enough. There’s a sprinkle of residual sweetness here but not enough to detract from an excellent, and refreshing, drinkability. Very impressive.

Cask conditioned handpump Euston Tap London. A golden beer with an off-white puddle of head. Ridiculously tasty with great citric hops throughout. A little balancing sweet malt in the nose, which then works excellently in the mouth with those hops. Really well balanced and so drinkable.
