Cask, 4.0% at GBBF08. Good rough hop aroma. Cloudy yellow colour, small stable white head. Good rough hop flavour.

Cask@GBBF2008. Golden colour, small white head. Aroma is fruity and nectary. Flavour is the same along with some hoppy grass and mild citrus. Bitter finish, but not that dry.

Cask at GBBF 08. Clear pale gold, thin off whtie. Yes very grassy hop aroma. On it’s day probably very refreshing. Citrusy, light, bit of sherbert. Better than average golden ale.

Cask at GBBF 08. Hazy, pale golden with a decent head. Fruity, lemony aroma. Grapefruit and lemons flavours. Refreshing, if not extremely complex.

Clear golden with tiny white head. Sweet fruity aroma with hints of caramel. Sweet flavor with fruity and mild hoppy notes. Ends bitter.

Cask conditioned at Harbury Beer Fest ’07. Pale straw with white head. This was the star of the show for me, and I seem to be at odds with the comments below, but this is a spicy, hoppy fresh light absolute belter from Consett. Fruity grapefruit notes, long finish, a bobby dazzler.

Aroma is biscuity malts, grassy mainly with a bit of citrus. Taste is more balanced, honey and biscut, citrus grapefruit and lychee try their best to come through but dont quite make it. Still very drinkable.
