Cask. Amber beer with a cream colored head. Light hop aroma. Malt and light floral hop flavor. Medium bodied. Malt and light hops (floral, earthy) linger. A bit too smooth.

Cask at BH, Pori. Clear amber, tiny but lasting pale head. Slightly appley, sweetish nose with some sugary toffee, very simple. Flavor is mineral salt, artificial apple-fruitiness, some cardboard, dryish and stuffy. Light bodied, low carbonation.Feels stale and bulky, cos that’s what it is.

[Cask at The Crown, Sheringham] Amber, slight white head. Snooth mouthfeel, possibly a little too cloying for a session bitter by the end. Fruity with some sulphur. Heaps better than the bland "Smooth" keg variant, but still pretty forgettable.
