maeib (3997), Wootton, Northampton, Northamptonshire, England Oct 13, 2006 Cask conditioned - handpump - Swan and Rushes - Leicester. A copper coloured bitter with some citrus hop aromas featuring lemon predominantly. The taste is also nicely hoppy with more lemon again. Quite dry and nicely tasty and clean. kook (2035), Perth, Western Australia, Australia Feb 24, 2006 St Albans (05): Golden in colour. Mild citric hop nose. Sweetish flavour, balanced though. Not bad. chris_o (4409), London, Greater London, England Dec 3, 2005 Cask (gravity dispense), St Albans Festival, October 2005. Amber/gold colour. Rather dull, slightly grassy aroma. A bit sweet initially on the plate. Clean enough, with some citric hop, but there’s not really a lot going on. May not have been in peak condition.
harrisoni (5307), Ashford, Kent, England Nov 19, 2005 Cask handpull at Blakes, Dover. Copper colour with thin white head. Quite a nice hop nose with some strawberry fruit. Some acids in mouth, with drying hop end. Quite a nice bitter. In fact it must have been nice as I ended up doing a session on it and enjoyed each fresh pint. Not too heavy but enough taste it keep you interested duff (5407), Sydney, Australia, Surrey, England Oct 18, 2005 Cask@St Albans beer Festival. Bit boring to be honest. Toffee/caramel and apple, some citrus, tastes like a lot of other bitters i suppose.
