Commercial Description:
Cask; Occasional - most recently March & April 2007.
NOTE: Only ratings of the cask version should be entered here - the bottled version has a separate listing.
A tempting aroma of biscuity malt, floral hops, vanilla and toffee, with hints of citrus fruit. A very refreshing, drinkable and well balanced India Pale Ale.

Tinned peaches on the nose, blunt bitter palate without hop flavours, more tinned peaches on the palate....was hoping for more from this because in the bottle i think this was my first introduction to the world of hops!

Cask @ Charlies, Cph.
Pours clear amber with no head. Sweet caramel aroma, light maltiness, but generally rather weak. Low carbonation, fine oily mouthfeel. Flavour is heavy sweet, lots of caramel, light sugar. The finish just about saves it with quite dry hoppiness.

Cask, Hinckley Fest 09. Amber with a thin head. Aromas are toffee malts with some Autumn fruit. Woody and floral with some light medicinal qualities. Flavours are sweet malts with dry woody notes. Slightly "chewy" with a dry hoppy finish. Decent.

Cask - JDW, Canterbury. Mildly hazy amber with a fine white head. Red berries, caramel and apple on the nose. Toffee and apple flavours with a touch of alcohol in the otherwise grassy hop finish. Medium body, slightly carbonated mouthfeel and a lasting dry grassy bitterness.
