Cask at the Eastbourne Beer Festival, 11th Oct 2008. Clear amber with a citrus nose. Flavour is similarly - citrus and hops. Good finish, clean palate. Impressive session beer.

A Mes rate: Gravicask @ Planet Thanet. Standard dusty hop nose. Copper / amber coloured. Lovely hoppy flavour with some nice citric and sugary notes. Almost tarty hop finish. Its all about the hops really but they are lovely hops it must be said.

Nothing special, just anothe rbitter among more than a thousand beers in a festival. Somewhat amber and not greasy, but taste easy to forget with the time. Good foam though.

Cask gravity at Kent BF. Dark gold, some goodish citric hop nose. Not a bad session citric hoppy ale. 3/5 Re-rate Cask handpull at Evening Star, Brighton. Pale copper colour with lasting off white head. Lovely soft hoppy session bitter. Some tangerine fruit. Grassy citric tangerine finish. Some yeast on aroma. Some citrus hop, juicy fruit in mouth, satsuma, then nice candied satsuma fruit finish. Impressive. The orange fruit is stunning. Great tangy hop finish. One of the best session beers I’ve had in years.

Gold/amber colour. Slight sulphur whiff in the aroma. Soft, but clean and dry, with some backbone. Not bad. Cask (gravity dispense), Twickenham Beer Festival 2004.

Cask@Twickenham BF. Quite decent. Some fruity hops. Nice fresh flavours of kiwi fruit (i seemed to be getting this in a lot of English Golden ales lately). lemonyy dry finish, a little grainy, but nice and fresh.

Cask conditioned at the Twickenham BF 2004, day 1. Smokey, sweet, syrupy & malty. Fairly heavy on the brown sugar.
