Cask conditioned at The Royal Blenheim, Oxford. Pale gold with white head. Initially quite bready, yeasty, but then comes in a dry hoppy bitterness, quite citrusy and grassy in character. Long lasting on the palate, enjoyable.

Cask, gravity, at 2nd Wellington BF, Wellington Arms, Bedford. Pale gold. Aroma is strawy hop. Taste is strawy hop. Some bitterness. It’s like drinking a haystack. Someone said a gropper is a dialect word for a type of bird, but I cannot confirm this.
