Cask, The Salmon, Leicester. Amber red with a cream foam.  Aromas are weetabix and toffee with hints of chocolate.  Earthy with mellow red berries and bubblegum.  Bready yeast with caramel.  Flavours are sweet weetabix and caramel with pear and mellow lemon fruitiness.  Chocolate, also, with leafy, dry, green hops.  Pretty good.

Cask gravity @ Nairn Beer Festival 2012
Reddish copper, hazy, big bubbly head
Aroma - lots of berry fruits, sweet Ribena, caramel malts
Taste - light sweet caramel malts. lots of fruity berries, blackcurrant, light toffee, easy drinking
Palate - very soft carb, thin body, berry fruit palate. Finish as main flavour, bit dry, bit of light bitter tail.
Overall - Easy drinking, quite simple fruity beer, quaffable

On cask at The Blue Blazer. Pours an amber colour with a decent beige head. Aroma is quite malty with caramel and a little lemon, Similar flavours with caramel and lingering biscuity malt. Moderate carbonation. Nice.
