[Cask conditioned] Golden coloured. Very hoppy aroma and flavour. Grassy notes. Lingering bitter finish. Very fresh and tasty.

(Cask at Oliver Twist, Stockholm) Golden, small white head. Fruity raw hop aroma with notes of grass and pineapples. Clean hoppy flavour of grass, salt, minreals and lemon peels. Dry salty and mineraly finish

Golden with a bubbly head. Aroma from soap. Elder flavor with floral notes. Hoppy finish.

Cask @ Akkurat, Stockholm
Semi blonde. Rather too much butterscotch for my palate. Especially in aroma, not so appearant in the taste, though. Slightly fat.

Cask at Akkurat, Stockholm. Golden colour. Grass and butterscoth dominates this light, yet rounded and drinkable ale. It has soft mouthfeel and is strikingly hoppy with lingering bitter finish. A very good thirst quencher.

Cask@The Head of Steam, Euston, London. Some nice subtle fragrant flowery hops in nose and flavour. Pale malt and light citrus and melon flavours, dry and crips, slightly grainy. A nice innofensive cask ale.

Cask Conditioned at the The Head of Steam, Euston Station. With Duff & Chris_o. Light golden ale. Fragrant and hoppy with a little unfermented wort thrown in.

Bottled, at the Head of Steam, Euston, London.
Pale golden, capped with bubbly white head. Despite looking like a pale hoppy session beer, this is actually a dull, metallic pint. This was a particularly smokey night in the HOS and I think any beer would have struggled.

Pale straw colour. Subdued hoppy character in the aroma. Quite uncompromisingly dry throughout, which some might find rather austere. I like it though. Very refreshing. Handpump, Head of Steam, London NW1, December 2003

This is one of those beers that you wish could go on and on. Hits the palate a little differently than most pales, it is a lot fruitier than most pales in my opinion.
