Cask; Regular.
A golden beer brewed especially for the Centenary of Chester's famous Eastgate clock. The fruity foretaste is followed by a mellow acceptable finish of hops. Winner of the Ludlow Food & Drinks Festival Oct 2002

Cask, roadside tavern, Cheshire. Golden orange colour. Citrus, hoppy aroma. Taste is sweetish with more fruit .Very smooth with a nice dry lingering finish. A tidy session bitter.

Cask at the Church Inn, Ludlow, Salop, 10-03-07. Pours an amber colour and has a sweet malty nose which pretty much gave me an indication of what this might taste like. Tasted very nice if a tad safe and was simple, malty, sweet, a touch of citrusy hoppiness and very quaffable.

Cask (gravity dispense) at St Albans Beer festival, October 2005. I’m afraid that this couldn’t really compete with the Oak Aged Yeti I tried just before, but it seemed a decent enough best bitter. Some resinous hops in the aroma, and a vague smoky malt edge. Good balance of earthy hop and dry malt on the palate, but there’s a rather disturbing metallic tang coming through on the finish and really building up in the aftertaste. Otherwise, perfectly fine and dandy.
