Cask at the Live and Let Live, Cambridge. Straw with a ring of white head; citrus aroma; citrus and honey flavour with a light bitterness; somewhat metallic finish. Another standard golden ale.

Cask by handpump at West Kirk, Ayr (7 Apr 12) - clear solid gold ale, frothy off-white head, lightly citrus hopped, vegetable, citrus, soapy, oily feel, slightly sour

One-finger lasting & lacy off-white head, clear mid amber body. Mid-fruit dominant aroma with a supple juiciness. Good biscuity malts & some mid fruits on the tongue. Light to medium body, soft, lightly dusty mouthfeel with a short & soft bitterness. Fine for a fruit-forward amber bitter on the whole.

500ml bottle. Clear pale golden colour with small macropore white head. Fresh fruity malt aroma, tart apple. Taste comes near to dry cider, apple again, dry to bitter. Light body. Very drinkable.

Cask-conditioned at the Seven Stars, Bristol 21/11/2011. Clear gold in colour with a decent white head. Light cereal malts and citrus aroma. Easy drinking, with some decent malts, more fruit and a gently bitter finish. Good.

Cask @ 12th Ayrshire Real Ale Festival, Troon 2011. Unclear golden colour, off-white head. Nose is slight vegetables, citurs, bit of lemonade. Flavour is light hoppy, citurs, a bit harsh. Expected a bit more.

Cask @ Troon Beer Festival. Resin malt aroma. Golden yellow colour. Dry cereal citrus resin flavour. Smooth light & refreshing.

500ml bottle from Sourced Market St Pancras rail station. Clear pale gold with lasting white head. Grassy light citrus aroma touch of lime and lemon. A little earthy in mouth. Decent hoppy biting finish with a touch of lemon. Decent enough golden ale with attractive finish.

500ml bottle picked up at The Sourced Market, St Pancras station. Straw-golden body, thin, patchy surface. Mild floral aroma. Taste of herbal hops followed by a careful dry bitter finish. Very average (shared with friends at a hotel room in London, 20.03.2011).
