29th Aug 2012 found me in the Ironbridge breweries only pub: ‘Ye Olde Fighting Cocks’, at Oakengates, a hand-pulled pint of this was duly drunk within.
Enjoyed it more than the bottle I reviewed back in Aug 2011: the cask version seems to have more about it in every way.
Light golden body with a full white head: the beer had to stand and be ‘topped-up’ such was the head size after pouring.
Hops dominate the nose, but a malt content is also ‘sniff able’ in the aroma.
The flavours in the mouth were again hop orientated but this time (unlike the bottled version) a pleasing malt element was present also. I found it uncomplicated but easy to drink and refreshing. Not too many ‘citrusy’ notes: a complaint I have about a lot of modern golden brews coming out of the UK breweries at the moment.
Body wise it was fine and the 4.4% ABV fitted in nicely with the overall feel of the beer.
