Commercial Description:
Cask, Regular;
A real ale with a hint of continental looks, taste and aroma. We’ve called it Quartz Crystal because of its light colour and finish. • Light in colour • Fresh taste to the palate • 4.2% ABV • Continental hop finish • Clear, clean and refreshing

Cask/gravity at Battersea Beer Festival 8 Feb 08. Golden brown colored. No head. Sweet fruity aroma of plums. Sweet fruity flavor with a modest bitter aftertaste.

A Sim rate (cask at Chelmsford BF): Aroma of apple and very slight caramel. Candy apples? Flavour is similar with slight alcoholic bitter aftertaste.

Cask at Merton Summer Beer Festival 06-07-07. Poured amber with a small white head. This was quite tasty, albeit a touch on the sweet side with caramel being the first flavour to hit me followed by a pleasant but safe maltiness. Glen’s right there wasn’t too much showing from the hops, but regardless of that I rather enjoyed it.

Cask conditioned at Merton Beer festival ’07. Amber, no head. I get what they are trying to do with this without getting it, so to speak. A light bitter, malt, biscuit background but when you expect the hops to kick through, they don’t, they are hiding. Still light and malty on the finish, it will appeal to some, just not me.
