On cask at George and Dragon, Heighington. Pours pale golden, with a stiff white head. Smooth citrus start but quite a tart finish. Not bad.

Cask @ GBBF ’12. The pour’s light gold with a medium white head. The nose is sugary, bright light orchard fruits. Some sweet cereal. The taste is sugared apple, some zippy lemon and light floral hops. Light body, pleasant. Soft. Nice.

jamesie1857 (812) - Sheffield, South Yorkshire, ENGLAND - JUL 29, 2012
Cask at Barrels in Berwick-upon-Tweed. An almost creamy mouthfeel and vanilla notes give this a weird but pleasant feel. A nice beer, and very quaffable.

AleManTom (195) - Chapel en le Frith, Derbyshire, ENGLAND - AUG 1, 2011
Dark golden, hazy beer with a yellowish head. Citrus on the nose and taste. Very light, not quite sure whether it was worth £3.30 a pint though.

Ungstrup (26237) - Citizen of the universe, DENMARK - JUN 4, 2011
Cask at GBBF 2010. A hazy dark golden beer with a yellowish head. The aroma has notes of citrusy hops. The flavor is sweet with notes of malt, citrusy hops, and elderflowers, leading to a dry, bitter, and citrusy finish. The body is light.
