Cask at Peterborough Beer Fest. Deep golden. Buttery nose with grains and orange. Sweet and fruity with medium body and notes of sulphur. I’m usually not a fan of sweet anf fruity golden ales, but this one is so excellently done so I can’t resist it!

UPDATED: MAY 11, 2007 Cask at The Chequers Inn, Binham, Norfolk, 28-04-07. Poured a really clear golden colour and smelt very fresh with a good citric element to the nice hoppy nose. Taste was instantly refreshing with a nice clean fruity citrusy (again) bite to it, finishes with a lovely bitter and dry flourish, a real flavour packed beer at just 3.9ABV. Very nice indeed.

A bright golden ale with no distinct head, but fizzy. A strong floral hop aroma with a zesty citrus nose. The taste is floral, hoppy and lots of zesty fruit flavours. Then a little biscuity malt towards the end. the finish is dry and fruity. (Cask - The Chequers Inn, Binham, Norfolk).
