Gravity cask at the Bree Louise. Pours a rich gold with a filmy, white head. Nose holds some ripe citrus notes and straw hops, along with sweet, bready malts. Has a nice flavor, pretty well balanced. There is some good bready sweetness, toasty straw and floral bitters. Light bodied with fine carbonation. Very light hints of lemon in the finish, with dry, toasty hay, mild leaves and sweet bread. A nice beer overall if a bit one-dimensional.

UPDATED: AUG 11, 2008 Cask Coditioned. Pale gold in colour with thin bubbly head. Light in malts and hops quite definitely tangy and fruity. Nicely bitter throughout, sharp and flavoursome.
Rerate Aug ’08, now up to 3.7% from 3.4%, fuller, more bittering hops, a better session beer

Cask at Kent beer festival. Dark gold with an almost nutty aroma, goodish balance. Some light white flesh fruit flavour, with fruity finish. Good session bitter, tasty for its light strength

Cask in the New Crown. Aroma is malty, peppery, earthy hops. Taste was similar, well balanced and very drinkable if a bit boring.

A Mes rate: cask at Baker Street McSporks.
Slightly hazy and watery golden brown. Not much to look at but thankfully the rest is much better. Lovely and fruity on the nose with some pleasant bready malt. Similar flavour but with an extremely floral hop topping and plenty of citric notes. Delicately bitter finish with some late mineral notes. Rather enjoyable compared to the usual poorly kept offerings I have to put up with here.

Cask conditioned at Rising Sun, Frampton Cotterell (Gloucs). Very pale with some fruit and hops in the finish. A summer thirst quencher.

Cask@Market Porter. Ambery golden colour, not much head. Aroma is flowery and wooden hops along with some herbal notes. Flavour quite much the same along with quite strong floral hoppy notes as well.
