Sep 6, 2009 Cask conditioned at Harbury Beer Fest ’09. Gold with white head. Big and beautiful cask ale, probably one of the best beers I have had at any Festival. Sharp hoppy grapefruit and gooseberry notes, mouth drying and bittersweet. Lasting and refreshing throughout, very very good.

Jul 31, 2009 Cask Handpump at the Intake Club, Mansfield 12/04/2008
Lots of hop aroma. Golden coloured and a little hazy in appearance. Very hoppy and fruity with some alcohol present. Crisp bitter and slightly dry creamy finish.

Jun 15, 2008 Cask at the Fox & Crown, Basford, Nottingham. This golden beer, paler than American IPAs, has a fresh pine aroma and complex flavour with soft fruit, resin, butter and a sharp hop finish. It’s dangerously moreish; I was persuaded to have more than one serving.

Dec 1, 2007 Cask (Gallows Bird, Espoo, Real Ale Festival 2006)
Sweet with ’rancid’ later taste. Interesting - heading towards a Sierra Nevada hop profile.

Oct 16, 2006 Cask @ Never walk alone, Kolding. Amber/golden color with a small white head. The American hops gives it a nice hoppy aroma. Very well rounded and good balance. Pale ale with fruity malt and a sherberty finish.

Jan 20, 2006 (Cask@Gallows Bird, Espoo) Golden color with a surprisingly firm, smallish head. Mild, american-hoppy aroma. Quite nice american-style hopping with lots of fruitiness, some berries and diacetyl. Medium-bodied, low-carbonated, slightly sticky palate. A nicely hopped brew, but quite mild for my taste.

Jul 18, 2005 Cask (gravity dispense), White Cliffs Beer Festival, February 2005
Very impressed with this, especially the use of American hops gives it a nice hoppy aroma. Very well rounded and good balance. Pale ale with fruity malt and a sherberty finish. Well worth trying this.

May 9, 2005 Cask at Babington Arms (JDW) Derby. Subtley hopped, sweetness all the way through, juicy fruits balanced out by a sort of freshly split wood tang, enjoyable.
