2.2 AROMA 3/10 APPEARANCE 2/5 TASTE 6/10 PALATE 2/5 OVERALL 9/20
Pours translucent golden, no head to speak of, aroma not much, slight floral honey hints, taste is malty sweet with a surprisingly strong bitter finish. Decent aftertaste

2.4 AROMA 5/10 APPEARANCE 2/5 TASTE 5/10 PALATE 2/5 OVERALL 10/20
Cask at sraf. Golden with a short lived little white head. Bit of a pissy aroma, lemon zest, slight must. Taste is zesty, lemon, some caramel. Very thin and watery, completely flat. Not for me, possibly a good alternative to drinking water
3.7 AROMA 6/10 APPEARANCE 4/5 TASTE 7/10 PALATE 4/5 OVERALL 16/20
Cask handpull at SRAF 2012. Pale yellow golden colour, thick white head. Soft hoppy nose, bit soapy, light lemon, touch of bready malt. Soft, juicy lemon and pine with a nice dry bready malt backbone. Nice refreshing bitter linger. Good.
3.4 AROMA 6/10 APPEARANCE 4/5 TASTE 7/10 PALATE 3/5 OVERALL 14/20
Cask at the Cask And Barrel Broughton St. A golden session ale which take a while to settle. When it does, it looks very good. Well hopped and quite light. I feel that Stewart probably achieved exactly what they wanted to with this one. Very nice.

Aroma - sweet golden malts...sweet grapefruit...sweet soft citrus fruits
Taste - soft fruits...citrus fruits...soft tropical fruit hops...sweet pale malts...background of soft bitterness...bit of canned sweet grapefruit...good balance between sweet/bitter...lots of flavour for 3.5%

3.6 AROMA 6/10 APPEARANCE 4/5 TASTE 6/10 PALATE 4/5 OVERALL 16/20
On cask at The Standing Order. Clear as a bell. Pours a golden colour with a fair white head. A citrusy aroma of lemon and grapefruit with caramel and yeast notes. Similar flavours with mild carbonation and an oily mouth-feel. Nicely bitter and dry to finish. Very sessionable.
3.4 AROMA 5/10 APPEARANCE 4/5 TASTE 7/10 PALATE 4/5 OVERALL 14/20
Cask @ The Doublet. Hazy pale yellow colour, good head. Mild biscuit malt aroma. Light refreshing citrus fruit & biscuit flavour. Lemon aftertaste. Not sure why this has been listed as a mild ale. It is definitely a light golden ale.
