Cask at Ye Old Mitre in Ely Place. Light floral hop aroma. Pale gold color with a slight white head. Starts with floral hop, passing through some mild balancing malt, ending in lightly floral, mildly bitter finish.

A mid amber golden coloured beer with a thickish white head. A light, floral hop nose with plenty of citrud fruit aromas as well. The taste is dry, floral and citrusy, a little grassy, then a smooth, light malt flavour comes through. The finish is dry. A good session ale, but again, not really an IPA. (Cask - The Ouse Amateur Sailing Club, King’s Lynn, Norfolk).

Any first impressions?
-A veil of foam shrouds the nearly clear golden.
-Toasted grain sweetness and mild fruitiness are surely precursors to the tasting experience.
-Juicy citrus fruit and mellow honeyed sweetness know how to please.
-Carbonation’s extremely low, yet this 3.8% brew manages to show a lovely body.

What if you dig deeper?
-Biscuity maltiness shyly lingers, alongside the supporting hoppiness.
-This is an incredibly drinkable golden bitter.

On cask at The Phoenix Inn, Inverness.

Handpump at the White Horse in Oxford. Pours a deep golden with a lasting white head. Aroma is spicy, herbal, floral with no malt. The body is watery with a fair amount of CO2 esp. for a cask ale. The flavors are really muted. Some sweetish malt, light herbal hops and not much else. The finish is fairly bitter. Not a bad beer but calling it an IPA is downright fraud.
