Sample courtesy of Grumbo, cheers Graham! Deep golden coloured, some bubbles on top and aroma of malt, biscuit, citrus. Taste is malty, bready, some biscuit and citrusy bitterness. Light to meduim bodied, soft carbonation, bitter finish. Quite OK

4/4/2021. Bottle shared at the first post-lockdown Ipswich beer share. From Northumbrian Gifts. Poured clear gold with a small frothy white head. Nice looking beer. Aroma of sweet malt, ripe fruits, grain, biscuit, flowers, touch of veg water. Medium sweetness, light bitterness. Moderate body, slightly oily and watery texture, average to soft carbonation.

Bottle from the greengrocer on Amble high street. Pours clear golden with a thin white head. Aromas of lemon, biscuit, something metallic. Taste is more of the same. Hint of gingerbread on the finish.

Gravity dispense at the 15th Kingston BF, 16/05/14. Clear golden with a moderate off white covering. Nose is light caramel, orchard fruit, yeast notes, eggy sulphuric wrong doings! Taste is citric jus, orange notes, twiggy orchard, straw. Medium bodied, moderate carbonation, drying close with light bitter pangs. Twiggy pap!
