Pours a deep amber colour with an average sized off white head. A floral and fruity citrus aroma, oranges and tangerines. Moderately sweet taste, malts and fruit flavours; bread, toffee and grapefruit. A drying citrus bitterness in the finish.

On cask. Clear amber body with a thin white head. Aroma of toffee, berries and citruses with a hint of grass. Taste is a lot like the aroma. Strong caramel malt base with some toast, citruses, grass and berries. Easy drinking yet tasty beer.

Cask-conditioned at the Grosvenor, Hanwell October 2016. Deep amber in colour, with a decent, off-white, head. Sweet, slightly bready, malts with some citrus hops and tangerine and red berry fruits. Finish was moderately dry. Good.
