Cask (gravity dispense), Reading Beer festival, April 2006. Copper colour. Dry, fairly hoppy stuff. Quite strong bitterness., slightly astringent. As might be expected for a low ABV bitter, the body is quite thin. But its clean, crisp and refreshing, which is no doubt the (limited) intention.

Gravity cask @ Reading Beer Festival 2006. Musty malts. Dry drinkable body with a little hoppiness to round it off.

Cask gravity at Reading BF 06. Pale chestnut colour with off white head. Good yeasty/ caramel/hot hop aroma/flavour. Goodish bitter along the traditional lines

<i>Cask Conditioned at Reading BF 2006 (Sunday)</i>. Reddy coloured. Muffled fruity aroma. Sweet and malty beer to taste with plenty of juicy orchard fruits and floral notes. Fresh tasting session bitter but nothing outstanding.
