Cask handpull at Tilley’s, Newcastle. Pale gold, lasting thin white head. Light hop aroma, lagery in mouth, a typical blonde beer. Needs more hop in my opinion. Touch of hard candy toffee flavour too.

Cask at the Swan in the Rushes, Loughborough. Golden coloured, with excellent white head, that stayed ’till the end. Sweet aroma, taste is fruity and buttery. Medium bodied, good quality session beer.

Bright gold with a tiny white head. Aromas are sweet and buttery with pine hops. Quite clean and summery. Flavours are soft malts with some citrus fruit and butter with more hops pine. A good moreish summer beer.
