[Cask at Ye Olde Cheshire Cheese, Castleton, Derbyshire] Gold with amber hints, thin white head. Floral aroma. Strong grapefruit taste (some sourness) with floral hints. Very dry finish. Nice punchy flavours (I can see how it’s won awards), but somehow overall it didn’t quite work for me.

Cask - Fat Cat, Norwich. Clear golden orange colour with a lingering frothy white head. Hoppy citrus and floral aromas and some sweet malty caramel notes. A good balance of both malts and hops in the flavour, combing citric, floral hop tones with sweet, fruity malty flavours. Good lasting hoppy bitterness, smooth, oily texture and a medium body.
