At the altar. Musty hop aroma with wafts of ammonia and citrus. Pillowy, citrussy, soft and malty with a hint of hop bite. Almost like Boddies, but with hops. Oaty sweet afters. Too cold and smooth, but pleasant refreshment.

Cask at the 3B’s, Reading. OK, so the name of this beer got me thinking about car registrations as well. My first P-reg was an orange Hillman Avenger back in the 70’s - when P-reg came around again I had a dark blue Citroen Xantia. Somehow this beer reminds me more of the first car than the latter.
Straw with a ring of white head; spicy hop aroma; fizzes on the tongue at first, releasing soft ginger and lemon flavours, then developing a stronger, dry, ginger character. Very pleasant.
2.6 AROMA 5/10 APPEARANCE 3/5 TASTE 4/10 PALATE 3/5 OVERALL 11/20
Cask at the Harlequin, Sheffield, on RateBeer Valley of Beer Crawl ’08. Pale gold, Very lively, with a large white head. Hoppy aroma and a sweet, soapy citric taste. Some slight bitterness. Didn’t really stand out. There was a long story about a car registration to go with this beer, but I’ve forgotten it.
