Cask Conditioned, at the Maidstone Beer Festival.
Golden body, fine bright white head. Good looking beer this. Crisp fruitiness with a good bitter finish.

cask at cloisters ... golden amber ... thin white head ... soft lemon nose fruit nose ... dry fruits ... light lemon ... little woody ... little grassy

Pours very pale blonde, white head. Hoppy, light, summery ale, quite fruity and a mildly bitter finish. A very easy drinking ale.

Cask@The Cumberland, Edinburgh. Clear golden, good head. Floral, almost perfumy hop nose. Spicy flavours, bitter and hinting of grass. Light body. Interestingly different beer due to complex hoppiness.

I dont recon this was in the best condition. Aroma is nutty malts, floural a bi of almonds at times. Taste is again nutty with pale malts coming through no noticeable alcohol but the body seems to suggest its about 6%, not really my deal though i did do the pint quite quickly.

Cask Handpump at the Station Buffet, Stalybridge 19/08/2001 Golden colour and strong in alcohol. Sour fruit and wheat flavours. Bitter hop finish.

An impressive amber coloured ale with fresh and fruity nose. This lead to an interesting fruit and bitter finish. well worth a try if you get the chance.

Cask Conditioned at The Rose & Crown, Charlbury. Pale golden with lacy head. Aromatic crisp fresh flavour, lasting bitterness throughout.

Gravity, Maidstone Beer Fest. Blondish. Bags of crisp citric flavours including some pineapple in a well designed enveloping malt base. A delightful brew.
