Cask at the Goat and Tricycle, Bournemouth. A slightly cloudy amber pour with quite a bubbly short lived head and no lace. No real aroma which is common for the style, but a very special fruity taste initially which leads to an amazing lingering spiciness with a touch of sourness which is quite unique. A special ale which I will certainly drink again.

Handpull at The Wheatsheaf (Southwark). Clear mahogany pour with minimal head. Aroma of unsweetened ice tea with lemon, a bit grassy. Taste ia more slightly sweetened light gunpowder tea - weird, but very refreshing. Slick, still, quick finishing ... Iced tea beer? Okay.

Sampled this bitter in Esquires, Glasgow (JDW) in October 2008. Cask, handpump dispense. Pale copper in colour with a slight haze and a thin white head. Interesting fruity aroma of green apples and pear - which reminded me of a extremely diluted Orkney Skullsplitter. Thin mouthfeel and good lacing. Pale malt complex leading to a sharp fruity base of raisins and tart redcurrants. Sweetness persists into the aftertaste with a metallic tang of hop resins giving a rounded and well balanced bitter sweet finish with a just a hint of pear. An interesting ale and well worth a session. Recommended.

Cask @ Willow Walk, JDW, Victoria SW1. Pours a clear amber color with a small off-white head. Has a fruity malty caramel aroma with hoppy hints. Sweetish fruity malty caramel flavor with hints of hops. Has a fruity malty caramel finish with hoppy hints in the aftertaste.
3.5 AROMA 7/10 APPEARANCE 4/5 TASTE 7/10 PALATE 3/5 OVERALL 14/20
(Cask at Edgar Wallace, Strand, London, 26 Nov 2010) Amber colour with frothy, off-white head. Malty, fruity nose with notes of citrus, apricots and fresh floral hops. Malty, fruity taste with apricots, citrus, biscuity malt with hints of sweetness and a fresh, citrussy bitterness in the finish. Medium body, with some sweetness. Refreshing, tasty and highly drinkable. Nice one.
