Cask@The Criterion, Leicester. Amber beer with a strongish head. The aroma is lightly fruity, and the flavour is bitter with hops and a lot of dryness. Overall a reasonable dry beer.

3.2 AROMA 6/10 APPEARANCE 3/5 TASTE 7/10 PALATE 3/5 OVERALL 13/20
Cask conditioned handpump Veritas Leeds 23/09/12. A golden beer with a big tight white head and lace. The nose hints at decent bittersweet balance but is a bit plain. It cmes alive a bit more in the mouth with good hops and a nice malt backbone. It has a fine flavour profile and in another world would be really good but actually it’s all a bit plain.

On tap at Craft. Very light haze on this gold beer. Light palate, smooth mild carbonation. Whisper of sulphur. Mild minerals. Very mild citrus. Bordering on insipid - just about saved by whispers of orange and honey.

Cask-conditioned at the Black & Gold beer festival, the Gryphon, Bristol 2/9/2012. Deep gold with a slight, off-white head. Light citrus fruit and grassy hop aroma. Flavour had some summer fruits, cereal malts and decent, bitter finish. Ok.
3.5 AROMA 7/10 APPEARANCE 3/5 TASTE 7/10 PALATE 3/5 OVERALL 15/20
Citrus fruits and bread to the nose, taste the same, fairly thin mouthfeel, spicy bitter fruity finish. Expected it to have a little more to the hops, much maltier than expected.
