Cask at The Hanging Bat. Pours clear pale gold, thick foamy white head. Light aromas of malt and grassy hops, light tropical fruit. Taste is light sweet, light bitter. Seems a bit light on the hops, doesnβt really showcase them. Just a nice blond ale.

Bottle from Deeside Drinks Emporium. It pours straw yellow, with a gigantic white head. The nose is grapefruit, gooseberry, white grape, zesty and some underlying sweetness. The taste is zesty lemon, gooseberry, white grape, grapefruit, hay, straw and floral with a long bitter finish. Medium body and moderate carbonation. Flavoursome and well balanced. A very good golden ale.
