Ethereal (927), London, Greater London, England Dec 26, 2007 Cask with Mes at the Market Porter, 2nd Sept 2007. Darkish gold with a small white head. Flowery, citrusy hop nose but tea flavour lets it down. Creamy mouthfeel and lingering finish but this is average at best I’m afraid.

Cask at the Market Porter. Mid gold with a decent white head. Nice grapefuity hop nose. Thin malty tea flavour. Really not my thing at all. As soon as I detect tea in anything I am totally put off. Thin yet sticky mouthfeel. Not my thing. haddonsman (1191), Derby, Derbyshire, England Mar 20, 2006 Cask (handpump) at the Babington (JDW) Derby. Decent, dependable Acron bitter, some gentle citrus notes, fresh bitter finish. DJMonarch (4091), Northwich, Cheshire, England Dec 14, 2005 Cask Handpump at the Devonshire Cat, Sheffield 06/10/2004
Golden and hoppy beer which is smooth on the palate. Slight bitterness in the long finish. DeepBlack (387), Derby, Derbyshire, England Jan 27, 2005 Cask Conditioned and on hand Pump at The Ale Wagon in Leicester. On 22nd Jan 05 during the Rate Beer Leicester meet/crawl. No sparkler.
