Cask conditioned @ Waterloo Arms, Soton. Golden. Leafy hops with a little citrus. Clean malts almost giving way to a little bitterness in the finish. Not particularly flavoursome but drinks quite easily.

Golden orange coloured brew, light flowery bitter hop flavour with way too long a bitter linger.

Cask Handpump at the Bar Fringe, Manchester 20/01/2007 Hoppy aroma. Clear golden coloured hoppy and slightly citrus. Crisp and dry malt finish.

Cask Very pale honey colour; disparate transparant B.C."H.". Rather sweetish nose, pizza dough, with some herbal-hoppy quality. Pale malts with a very slight smoked edge - smoked hops added? There’s a light hoppy bitterness, but giving in to the malts. Ever so slightly citrussy flavoured. Light, very light, with a slight slickness. It’s not undiserving. An entrance for the boys...
