On tap at the brewpub. Orange/yellow pour, small white head. Pleasant aroma - some grain, some hops. Taste is nice - a bit light on the body, but that accentuated the hops. Nice malt base in the light body. Enjoyable and very very drinkable, this was a nice pint.

On tap at the Olde Stone. Not too bad of an attempt at an English Bitter. Nose was rich in hops and barley. I knew what to expect next. A nice rush of bitter hops attacked the palate with a prominent taste in barley and bread. Not too bad of a brew.

On tap at the Old Stone, Peterborough. My pick every time I drink there. Clean, smooth, slightly woody taste with a nice finish. Excellent bitter all the way.

On tap Nov 28. Orange brown with a film of head. Aroma is mainly malt, with citrus and some floral hops. Taste is nicely bitter - not metallic, with a bit of malty sweetness in the middle. Nice bitter finish.
