Sep 26, 2009 cask selection at the brewpub. Poured copper in color with a thin beige head. Aroma of earthy hops and some pine. Tastes of floral, bitter earthy hops. Not really a huge fan of British style IPA’s.

Feb 19, 2009 On cask at Zeno’s Pub. Pours a heavily hazed amber-orange, with a cream, soap up above. Punchy orange and citrus nose, lightly sweet with a bit of plum sugar. Flavor is lightly nutty, then heavy with some real catty and doggy hop character. Muddled. There’s a wide-ranging spice and some cask-yeast about. Salty. A bit of nice oakiness in the back end. Seemingly classic by British standards, but definitely not my favorite. Kind of all over the map and a bit unclean in the hop character.

Jul 30, 2007 Cask at brewpub. Pours orange amber with an eggshell head. Nice floral hop and fruity aroma. Medium bodied but with a British like texture and soft carbonation. Flavor of toffee, caramel, and tea that transitions to a spicy hop middle. Not much residual sweetness/ Finish is dry and lasting. I prefer a bit more sweetness to balance things out, but otherwise this was pretty solid.
