cgarvieuk (2525), Edinburgh, Scotland Jun 9, 2008 Cask at Cloisters edinburgh ... Golden orange ...honey hop nose ... light sweet mellow fruit with a grassy back bone... quite dry in linger. Magic_dave6 (4000), London, Greater London, England Jun 7, 2008 Cask in Blackfriars. Aroma is Pale and sweeter malts, grassy peppery hop. Taste is similar, the house yeast is key here and i just realed with this beer what it is, a slightly roasty burnt character it adds to the beer, which is fine with the dark ruby however distorts the lighter beers a bit.

Some hop aroma. Clear golden coloured hoppy slightly fruity and pale. Some bitterness in a crisp malt finish. Daniel_Brown (1919), Birmingham (via Leicester), West Midlands, England Mar 29, 2005 Draught at Beacon Hotel (Brewery Tap) Sedgley. Metallic yellow, thin topping of froth. Slight malt aroma. Rather less flavoursome than the other beer sampled at the Beacon. Flat malt flavour sneaking towards cardboard. Average, though smooth. DeepBlack (387), Derby, Derbyshire, England Feb 22, 2005 Cask Conditioned & on hand pump at the Derby CAMRA beer festival on 09/02/05.
Light amber brown colour.
Dry, hoppy, a good solid bitter. Got a bit thick on the palate after a few. (I know this as I chose this one to fill up my carry keg with :)
