Can shared in London - thanks to Daniel. Pours hazy orange with a creamy, white head. The aroma holds pale grains, rindy citrus, white grape. Light sweet flavour with nips of apple skins, soap, lemon n peel, pale grains. Light bodied with fine to average carbonation. Finishes with further soapy notes, crips grains. Not the best.

Can at LKS. It pours hazy golden with a thick white head. The aroma is so damn sweet, sticky, oily, candy, loads of melon and sugar. The taste is soft, sweet, toasty grain, bread, loads of melon, pear, hint of tartness with a drying finish. Medium body and moderate carbonation. Decent enough fruit gold.

Can from Cotteridge Wines, Cotteridge, Birmingham, consumed at home on Pond Building Pt2 Weekend, indoors now, preparing Swordfish Burgers with Artichoke Escalivada and Smoked Paprika Sherry Mayo, Sunday 30th April 2017 Murky, dirty, sticky bubbly white head, aroma is a little like brewing day. Not an awful lot going on here, it’s absolutely fine but not really blowing me away. A touch of soap suds, I’m lazy tonight as I am really struggling to pick up much here. Fine. A6 A3 T6 P3 Ov12 3.0
