Cask Conditioned, at the Wenlock Arms, London.
Golden ale well presented. Silky smooth malt base with a lovely hop smack on the palate. Very drinkable.

Cask (gravity dispense) at Ealing Beer Festival, May 2006. A nice looking pale gold beer with a thin white head and decent condition. Nettley, grassy aroma, with a spicy edge. Same on the palate. Definite Saaz character. No complaints from me about this one.

Cask@Ealing Beer On Broadway. Pretty light, with some pleasant peach and apricot fruityness. Lightly sweet and lightly bitter, light mouthfeel.

Cask Conditioned at Ealing Beer on Broadway Festival, 2006. Eggy aroma with some malt. Sweetish malt flavour, grains, rather soft with a few hops thrown in at the end. A good British stab at a pilsner.
