Had this at the Leamington Food Festival this year. Poured from a cask it had good head and was the perfect temperature. Had a decent mouthfeel and is exactly what you would expect in an EPA.

On cask as a guest ale at the local social club.
It's being touted as "Pale Lager malt with Maris Otter makes this a refreshing real ale alternative to lager." And that description isn't too far off.
Golden-brown hues with a slightly cloudy appearance are definitely whetting my appetite.
Has a high presence of floral fragrance, with a subdued fruit aroma as well (subtle banana?)
When the mildly fruity tastes combine with the floral aroma, I'm thinking there's more than a hint of elderflower, although I'm sure the name "Darling Buds" has someting to do with what they're gonig for. Either way, this is a nice, slightly sweet milder version of an English bitter or English pale ale (this was hard to classify in actuality).
Mouthfeel is typical cask ale--not a lot of carbonation, but adequate.
Definitely drinkable--this was great sitting outside on a sunny day!
