Cask in the market porter. Aroma is toffee malts, floural grassy hop. Taste is on the sweet side, grassy and bitter, not much going on.

Bottle from Wickcroft farm shop Reading. Pours a dark brown chestnut colour with a medium white head. Has a fruit and malt aroma. The taste is full of fruit and citrus with a dry sweet finish.

Gravity at Reading Beer Festival 2 May 08. Brown colored. A thin filmy head. Sweet fruity aroma. Sweet bitter malty flavor - but quite watery. Dull.

Cask (gravity dispense) at Reading BF, shared with Finn. Layered with a thin head leaving some nice laceworks on the glass. Plain malt-fruity aroma that continues to the taste. Flavour is supported a clean touch of citric fruits. Moderate bitterness. Rather well bodied for the ABV (02.05.2008).

[655-20070922] Cask @ Masons Arms (Headington, OX). Grassy citrus hops with some pine, grapefruit flesh and a hint of body odour. Clear, amber orange body with a small medium-lasting creamy off-white head. More resiny citrus sweat flavour has a lot of grass. Medium body is smooth with a hint of bitterness. Locals love it, great medium hoppy beer.
