Bottle shared at a level 42 tasting Canary wharf 5/5/2016. Many thanks to Matteo for this one. Translucent golden orange coloured pour with a a halo of white head. Aroma is smoked meats, Phenol, grapefruit. Wheat. Bit weird. Flavour is composed of semi sweet light grains, melon, peach, salt, pear. Flavour is composed veg, semi sweet malts, melon, salty, hint of smoked meats, . Palate is medium bodied, moderate carbonation. Melon funky sour.

T42 Bottleshare. Thanks to Matteo. Very hazy gold beer, untidy cream colour head. Palate is airy and dry, reasonable fine carbonation. Fluffy malts, light sweetness. Semi sweet floral mid. Lemon marmalade and a little sherbet. Light savoury bitter brett. Light dry finish leaves a tangy lemon linger. Not bad.

Bottle shared in London - thanks to Matteo. Pours hazy yellow-gold with a creamy, white head. Odd nose, some plastic, lemon, peel. Medium sweet flavor, with some jammy citrus, ripe lemon, salt. Medium bodied with average carbonation. Tart finish, with more lemon, sugary meringue, salty sweat. So so overall.

Bottle thanks to Matteo. It pours cloudy golden - yellow with a tiny white head. The aroma is funky, dirty, musty, old cheddar cheese, vinous and must. The taste is crisp, sweet - sour, tart, creamy, cheesecake, lactic tang, grapefruit, orange peel, dull vomit, hint of celery and lemon with a dry finish. Medium body and fine, prickly carbonation. A bit odd. Meh.
