Cask Stillage at the Metropolitan Cathedral Crypt, Liverpool 20/02/2009 Hop aroma. Bronze golden coloured floral and hoppy with some alcohol present. Crisp slightly dry and bitter in the finish.

Cask at The New Oxford. A pale golden beer with a lazing beige head. The aroma has notes of malt, hops, and caramel. The flavor is sweet and very malty, but also lighter notes of fruit and bitter hops. I can’t figure out if the fruity notes stem from the yeast or the hops.
