Cask. Hazy amber colour with mediumsized white head. Aroma is nutty and flowery along with some nectary and wooden hints. Flavour is a pleasant mix of fruity and flowery hops, quite much grass and caramel malts balancing it up. Some notes of cookies also.

UPDATED: DEC 27, 2004 Cask @ Shore Hotel, Laxey

Amber - not in the beer sense but literally like a piece of amber; kind of watery, caramel, touch of copper, wood, finishes slightly sweet.

harrisoni (9608) - Ashford, Kent, ENGLAND - JAN 27, 2006
Cask handpull at Fly in the Loaf, Liverpool. Copper colour with creamy head. Seem to use a tight sprinkler. Yeasty session bitter with goodish hop finish. Bit metallic. Even still tasty session beer. Bit thin around the edges but core yeast/caramel/hop falvours hold together well. A bitter that is bitter
