3.5 AROMA 7/10 APPEARANCE 4/5 TASTE 7/10 PALATE 3/5 OVERALL 14/20Cask at CPK, London. Pours clear yellow with a fine, foamy head. Toasty biscuit nose. Medium sweet flavor with some dry biscuits, light toasty sugar, a bit of sweet hay. Light bodied with fine carbonation. Sweet to finish with light, bitter hay, some mild white sugar and biscuity malts. Fine, easy drinking beer. A very decent cask lager.

Cask at Craft Beer Co, London on 5th July 2012. Slightly hazy gold with thin vanishing white head. Almost no initial aroma, but very pleasant cheesy and hoppy notes in-mouth. Grassiness and herbiness provide a kick. Leafy finish - bayleaf, with bittersweet background. A very pleasant ale -disappointing aroma is well compensated by the remaining flavours. Pleasant, light mouthfeel.

Good grassy aroma. Super smooth for a lager, taste dominated by biscuity malt with little hop evident. Very drinkable, but not really my thing.

Cask at the CP&K, Scopey’s Birthday Bash. Clear gold beer, little white head. Light palate, fairly dry. Low carbonation - especially for a lager! Mellow grapefruit hop with a trace of orange. Light dry finish with a mildly bitter aftertaste.
