Cask at Euston Tap East Lodge. It pours clear pale yellow - gold with a thick white head. The aroma is fresh, soft, sweet, sweet lemon, lemonade, white bread and straw. The taste is crisp, clean, dry, pretty bitter, straw, pithy, grapefruit, sweet lemon, white bread and grass with a drying finish. Light body and moderate carbonation. More bitter than I was expecting. Not bad.

33cl can from Beer52.com. A slightly hazy pale amber pour with a loose white head; chalky tropical fruit aroma; fuller tropical fruit taste, with a sharp, dry, bitter close. Pleasant enough.

On tap @Mad for Beer (Rome). Dorata carica, molto torbida, opalescente, schiuma media poco persistente. Al naso sentori di agrumi, scorza di limone, mango e melone. In bocca è un po’ sporca, lievitosa, la base di malto è ben presente e l’amaro finale è medio con una discreta persistenza. Corpo medio-leggero, carbonazione media. Non così "session", andrebbe rifinita un po’.
