Cask @ GBBF. Golden in colour with no head. Faint nose of fruits: apple, pear and berry. Medium body - quite clean. Sweet and sour start. Malty with tastes matching the nose. Sweet, dry finish. A British beer I can enjoy. Jolly good stuff.

Dec 26, 2007 [701-20070926] Cask @ Ship & Shovell (London, GL). Wet ferret-like aroma has light resin or caramel notes. Clear, orange amber body with a quick bubbly white head. Generic fruit flavour has a nice doughy yeast finish. Medium body. Repeatable, mild but nice.

Oct 3, 2007 Hazy light amber coloured ale topped by a nice off-white film. Shy aroma is pretty grainy and almost devoid of hop flavours. In mouth, it is frankly plasticy upon the finish. The yeastiness is a bit too phenolic for a session ale, kinda chemical. A rare case of a bad yet fresh cask ale for me.

Oct 1, 2007 Cask at a Wetherspoons. Amber in colour with a slight head. Floral and citric aroma. The taste is similar but with a touch of caramel. Light-medium in body and a smooth, dry mouthfeel. The hops never come to much and so the finish is sweeter rather than bitter and quite bland.
