(Cask at stand 35 on EBF 2008, on Saturday September 13)<br />Clear copper color, small white head. Bitter, sweet, malty taste. Sweet malty scent, some alcohol. Medium mouthfeel, low bitterness. Dry finish.

From cask. Pours clear and golden orange with a bubbly white head. Mild spiced and hoppy aroma. Smooth bitter and fruity hops base flavour. Mild fruity and hoppy finish. Nice one.

Charters, Peterborough. fairly flavoursome, malty bitter that is smooth, well-balanced and very drinkable without being anything special. better memories of having in from cask than previous bottled experience though.

Cask at the Trumpet, Evesham. Like the bottled version, this is a deep amber, almost copper coloured beer with a sweet fruit aroma. Fruity malt dominates the flavour although the finish is more hoppy.
