Golden, with a floral aroma and a full hoppy flavour that is balanced by a crisp dry maltiness and a rich finish.

Bottle at the "Lets celebrate the fact that Dean is already the Mayor of M&S Den Haag even though it’s only been open for 24 hours tasting!". Poured a clear straw colour with a thin white head. The aroma is hop citrus. The flavour is medium bitter with a grapefruit citrus palate. Medium bodied with average carbonation. Not a bad brew!

Small white head. Clear amber body. Light floral fruity aroma with perfumy notes. Dry-sweet perfumy grape taste with fruity resiny notes. Mid-bodied. Mild, soft, flat mouthfeel. Dryish resiny strawy wooden aftertaste with dusty grassy notes. Nice, but a bit harsh. (0.284l cask at Grain Loft, Manchester Airport.)

Pint at The Royal Hill Inn, Edgerley. Really hit the the spot this after a long drive. A thirst quenching blend of floral hops and crisp malts with a clean bitterness. Another pint please barman.

Cask @ Akkurat. Pours golden, only slightly hazy, with a finger high white head. Grape and orange notes in aroma. Taste is malt dominated and somewhat sour (!?) with notes of citrus and with heavy good tasting notes of orange. Low carbonation. Quite smooth.

Light citrus smell and light hop/ citrus taste. Unremarkable but drinkable if a touch bland.
