Bottle from Wine And Beer Direct, Halifax. Straw-yellow with a thick frothy head. Lots of hops, a fair amount of citrus which is at its greatest in its nose as its taste is less stated than you expect given it’s potency. There’s some acidity, some grapefruit, and a citrus bitterness.

Cask at Craft 100. It pours clear golden with a small, bubbly white head. The nose is fresh, floral, tangerine, apricots and candied peel. The taste is fresh, orange peel, soap, lemon peel, peppery spice, grapefruit and onions. Medium body, fine carbonation and slightly sticky mouth-feel. Good level of bitterness. The onion-like aspect is a bit off-putting after a while...

Craft100 fest at Craft Clapham. Cask. Lightly hazy gold beer, residual white head. Palate is light and dry. Big Apollo hop like garlic. Underneath is thin malt with a strong white smoke streak. Light dry finish. Weird.

Bottle from Cotteridge Wines, Birmingham purchased and consumed the same day at mums, Worcester, Friday 4th April 2014 Pours cloudy yellow with a white head. Wonderfully hoppy with a nice pithiness, a little dustiness . This is nicely bittersweet, juicy with the bitterness coming to the fore and ending in a dry finish. A damn good beer.
