A beer of two halves: refreshingly hoppy up front, followed by a balancing bitterness and a hint of sweetness to finish.

Bottle. Color: Lightly hazy golden, white head. Aroma: Floral hop, grain, subtle fruity. Taste: Floral hop, sweetish and grainy malt, some citrus fruit and hints of sweetish tropical fruit. Light hints of caramel. Medium body, just below average carbonation. Moderate to over moderate sweet, moderate bitterness. Starting hoppy, going to more malty, more sweetish, with a hoppy backbone.

Now 3,4%. Light, hoppy aroma. Golden colour, with a white, quickly dissipating head. Medium body and carbonation, refreshing and easy to drink. Malty flavour, some caramel and fruitiness, and notes of lemon, with a distinct herbal bitterness. Good for watching the game.

Cask at the Prince Arthur (JDW), Fleet. A bright straw colour with a loose white head; grainy aroma; soft and fruity in the mouth with a grainy body; and a crisp, dry, lingering bitterness. Reminds me of a good pilsner, just the thing to drink while watching your team fail to win (again).

Cask at The Swan, Farnborough. 15/06/16. A light hoppy aroma. Light amber in colour, with a white frothy head. The brewer’s description is pretty accurate, before reading it I’d noted, "initial sweet taste, with a bitter twist, giving way to more sweetness." Pretty light with with a bit of life to it. Have used ’light’ and it is the operative word. Easy drinking but nothing complex. Good for 4 or 5 over a match.
