Bottle. Archer Road Beer Stop, Sheffield. Clear gold. Messy, sticky, white head. Fruity, sweet, grainy malt. Piny, slightly fusty, orange hop. Some juicy fruit. Smells pretty good, this. Taste is well balanced sweet, and fruity, pithy bitter. Oily, and pitch perfect carbonation on the palate. Finishes juicy sweet. Juicy bitter. Very easy drinking.

Cask, The Dispensary, Liverpool. Clear gold looks with a medium white head. Slightly muted nose, a bit of peach and malt lurking. Sweet, boozy flavour, with some fruity notes and a hint of cardboard. Not quite enough hop for me. Wasn’t really feeling this.

Fra flaske 330ml fra House of Trembling Madness, York. Gyldenbrun. Høyt luftig skum som varer en god stund. Tappelacing. Behagelig aroma av plommer & fersken. Smaken avrundet. Ulik frukt. Blir tørr etter hvert. Veldig mersmak.
