imdownthepub (4046), Banbury, Oxfordshire, England May 31, 2008 Cask conditioned at Barons Bar, Southport. Gold amber with white head. It’s a strange old place, I drive all the way to Merseyside and get a beer from just across the Cotswolds! Sharp, tinny type bitter, quite tangy and grapefruity. Good bitter finish, I happily explained to the locals how good the beers were down south compared to the north!! kwoeltje (1207), Manchester, Missouri, USA Jul 15, 2007 (can) pale gold. very faint malt aroma. Flavor is slightly sweet malt, not much hops. Fairly crisp. maxbeer (114), Italy Feb 21, 2007 [Cask at Black Horse, Leominster] Amber special bitter, malty, round, tasteful and enjoyable DJMonarch (4091), Northwich, Cheshire, England Feb 3, 2006 Cask Stillage at the Community Centre, Frodsham 25/05/2002
Golden amber colour slightly rich on the palate. Bitter with wheat flavour and a dry finish. Daniel_Brown (1919), Birmingham (via Leicester), West Midlands, England Jun 26, 2004 Hand pulled at the Anchor, Birmingham. Excellent golden beer. Creamy, fruity and sweet. Doesn’t go for an all-out assault on the tastebuds, but is insistent and creeping. Fresh and very balanced, with all the fruit and bitterness you want, right through to the finish.
