Commercial Description:
Cask; Regular.
This well balanced session beer uses Maris Otter Pale Ale malt which gives the beer a light amber colour, malty character, and a dry finish. The hops we use are Kentish Fuggles and Goldings, giving the beer a delicate floral aroma, smooth sweetness, and a resinous spicy note.

Cask (gravity filled jug) @ Smithfield Hotel & Bar, Manchester M4, UK. Clear medium amber orange color with a small, virtually none lacing, fully diminishing, head. Aroma is light to moderate malty, roasted, nutty, light brown sugar. Flavor is moderate sweet and moderate to light heavy bitter with a average to long duration. Body is light to medium, texture is oily, carbonation is flat. (180108)

Cask Stillage at the Bhurtpore Inn, Aston 12/07/2007 Some floral aroma. Golden coloured hoppy and smooth on the palate with a crisp and slightly bitter malt finish.

I also tried this at Peterbrough and found it to be a light amber colour, malty character and a, very dry, resinous spicy note.

Tried this at Peterborough. Very impressive for a first beer, good colour, lovely hoppy aroma (lots of fuggles I think?) and a genuine bitter taste. Well-rounded overall
