Cask (handpump) at the Market Porter, Southwark, June 2006. A light, golden bitter - style that Fernandes is rather fond of. Very pale straw colour in fact. Distinctly hoppy aroma, with the emphasis on herbaceous, grassy character. Light tangy, spicy notes beneath. Less on the palate. Dry, but rather short of flavour. This leaves the mouthfeel a touch thin. A decent enough summer quencher though.

Cask @ Market Porter: Thin, dry feel. Light golden colour. Simple grassy hops. Drinkable, quite refreshing but a little thin.

Cask conditioned at the Market Porter, Southwark. A very hazy yellow, that becomes clear towards the end of the glass.. No aroma at all. Sweaty grapefruit, loads of citrus fruit to taste. Dry and interesting.
