Nice light summer drink, taste was largely floral and citrusy and quite pleasant

Had on hand pump. Quite fruity, even for a summer beer--which is by no means bad. Mostly citrus fruits with a strong grapefruit characteristic.
3.4 AROMA 7/10 APPEARANCE 3/5 TASTE 7/10 PALATE 3/5 OVERALL 14/20
Gravity at Marble’s new place on Thomas Street. Bright gold with a few bubbles on top. Aroma is nicely hoppy. Mouthfeel is quite thin but hops shine through well in the taste, with grapefruit, apple and pear coming to the fore. Quite sticky and resinous too. Refreshing and worthy of its name.

Although one of the better bitters I’ve tried, it’s not overly impressive like Landlord on cask. Lots of maltiness, biscuits, hops without a strong enough fruit character.
3.8 AROMA 8/10 APPEARANCE 3/5 TASTE 8/10 PALATE 3/5 OVERALL 16/20
Cask @ The Cock Tavern. Light amber color with no head. The aroma’s very sweet orchard fruits and apricots. The taste is light grassy hop, more sweet peaches and plenty of strawberry fruit salad. Light and refreshing. Zippy hints of lemon. Sweet, but very flavorful. Nice!

Half, 4.2% abv., cask at the brewpub, shared with Stefan. Bubbly white head, fragile lacing. Yellow-gold body. Dry lemony hops to the nose. The flavour contains fruity hops with notes of fresh oranges and grapefruits. Smooth, dry bitter ending. Oily palate. Summer feel, indeed (Manchester, 05.07.2012).

Cask at Amber Valley CAMRA beer fest Oct 2011
Nice light golden colour with good fruity citrussy aroma
Taste dry and bitter. Didn’t live up to its promise really
3.2 AROMA 7/10 APPEARANCE 3/5 TASTE 6/10 PALATE 3/5 OVERALL 13/20
On Cask at the Old Hall Beer Festival in Chinley 23/9/11. Pleasant but not stunning bitter. Pale gold with a small head, slightly hazy. A good nose on it, plenty of fruit, grapefruit, lemon, orange. Not overly bitter and overall, just above average.
3.3 AROMA 7/10 APPEARANCE 2/5 TASTE 7/10 PALATE 3/5 OVERALL 14/20
Cask at Southampton Arms. Light blond with no head. Quite translucent. Smell is very fruity, bit citrus, bit kiwi, bit peach and bit lemon. Taste is quite fruity and not as bitter as I expected. Nice fruity finish with a bit of a tingle.
