harrisoni (10070) - Ashford, Kent, ENGLAND - JUL 5, 2005
UPDATED: NOV 24, 2006 Cask at County Hotel JDW, Ashford. One of my favourite all time beers. Golden in colour with wonderful citrus, grassy, hoppy flavours. The malt gives it some red berry notes and the finish is long and hoppy and dry. Simply fantastic session beer I can drink all night. 4.7/5 Re-rate, gravity dispense cask at Butcher’s Arms, Herne. The grapefruit sherbert hop is stunning.

Cask Conditioned at The Evening Star, Brighton. Light in colour, this is a little beauty of a session bitter. Packed with tasty light hops, refreshing to drink, would be great for a full session.
