Cask at The Queens Head in Stow-on-the-Wold. Very drinkable bitter. Balanced malt and sort of grassy/floral hop. (Note from 10/11/2008).

Cask@GBBF2008. Amber colour, small white head. Aroma is wood and fruits with some mild earthyness. Flavour quite much the same. Not bad, but very boring.

Cask at GBBF 08. Slightly cloudy amber with a weak aroma and poor flavour. Unfortunately, just another average UK bitter.

Cask-conditioned at the Black Horse, Naunton, Gloucs 9/9/07. A vivid amber colour with a moderate off-white head that left a lot of lacing down the glass. Pronounced malty aroma without being cloying. Easy drinking with a hint of toffee followed by a decent bitter finish. This offered a huge amount for a 3.6% bitter - probably the best sub-4% ABV beer I have experienced.

Cask at the Fox Inn, Great Barrington, Glos’ 02-09-06. Classic english bitter served in a lovely pub and beautiful village, pours amber coloured was nice and malty and just the right level of bitterness, my only criticism was that it was a tad on the warm side otherwise a very good beer.
