Dark gold with a white head. Nice refreshing hoppy fruity nose. Fresh grainy start with a decent hoppy finish. Decent golden ale.

Slips down like a coal miner stepping on the liquid remains of a canary. Seeing stars. A cask beer.

Cask@The Market Porter, Borough, London. Golden colour. Quite crisp and light, and a little bit lagery. Citrusy, with some light peaty malt characters, easy drinking, but a bit boring.

Served on Hand Pump from the Cast at The Vat & Fiddle in Nottingham. A very pale beer, particularly bitter in taste, also quite hoppy & dry. Very moreish

Light looking ale with a well hopped aroma for such a low alcohol beer, and a hopped and dry flavour. Great for a 3.8% beer.
