Jun 20, 2009 Had this at the Cambridge beer festival, wasn’t taking too many notes that day. Terribly quaffable, but all over quite an average bitter. The zestiness of the cascade was apparent but dissipated quickly.

May 9, 2009 Bottle, not BC. Bright bronze with fine lace drapes. Fine musky hop-driven aroma mixing up grapefruit, passion fruit, rose, peardrop and stewed tea. Flavour more caramelised with cakey cherry hints, nutty malt linger, hint of choc biscuit. Hops fade away a bit, which is disappointing. Filtered so no yeasty weirdness, hint of smoke for dessert. Doesn’t quite deliver.

Sep 2, 2007 Cask conditioned at Harbury Beer Fest ’07. Brown ruby with white head. Rich malty dry bitter, again a late hop and a lingering fruitiness. Sharp metallic notes in the body, warms to a lingering biscuit note.

May 4, 2007 This was bottle conditioned, but notably flat, like almost no carbonation at all. Fruity, yeasty dusty very unusual nice.

Oct 1, 2006 Cask (gravity dispense) at Reading Beer Festival, April 2006. Quite dark brown for a bitter, so I was expecting toffee and caramel. However, while there is a fair amount of fruit and soft malt, there’s also a surprising level of hoppy bitterness. Earthy and citric (which, looking at the hop varieties employed, is not surprising) at the same time. Unusual and, to me at least, rather appealing. Mixing US and UK hop varieties does not always work too well but I thought it did on this occasion.

Fruity aroma. Copper mid brown coloured with some fruit flavour. Crisp bitter and slightly dry on the palate with a malt finish. Slightly thin.

May 1, 2006 Cask conditioned - gravity dispense - Reading BF. A dark brown coloured beer with a dull nondescript aroma. The taste has some hop note and a late bitterness, but the whole experience is not very exciting.
