Bottle. Golden beer with a strongish head. The aroma is gently hopped, and the flavour is dry, hopped, toffee and slighlty sour at the finish. Overall a nice drink.

Cask@GBBF2008 (3.6 %). Golden colour, mediumsized white head. Aroma is fruity, doughy and mildly flowery malty. Flavour is the same along with some very saltwatery notes. Quite different brew.

Cask at GBBF 2008. Plenty of fruit and hop aroma. Good gold colour, plenty of citrus in the flavour, which leads to a crisp dry finish.
