Bottled. Hazy orange colour with a mediumsized white foamy head. Aroma is parfumed soap, some citrus and mild dry wooden and some acidic/sourish tones. Flavour is citrus, some toffee and mild bready and sourish berries to it. Nicely tart and somewhat dry palate.

18/7/2019. Bottle from Tapped, Leeds. Pours slightly hazy golden with a small off-white head. Aroma of lime cordial, key lime pie, chocolate limes, lemongrass and bitter lemon. Light sweetness, big kick of lime sour. Moderate body, slight oily texture, average carbonation. Neat lime cordial finish. Good job I like limes otherwise I'd have hated this.

One-third pint, keg at Mr Folyes Ale House. Cloudy dark golden body, lacing rings down the glass from a low white head. Fresh smell of orange fruits, dry. Mid-tart fruity taste of orange, lime, and lemon. Sweet and lightly tart to the ending. Refreshing, well bodied. (Leeds 02.07.2019).

Bottle from Monty's Bar. Appearance - golden amber and flat. Nose - lightly sour lime with bread at the back. Taste - sour lime again. There's generally a margarita thing going on. Palate - light to medium bodied and sour tangy through the middle. Long dry tangy sour finish. Overall - very nice.

Beaverfest. Keg. Hazy gold beer, small pale cream colour head. Palate is light and semi dry, decent fine minerally carbonation. Thin malts. Good sweetish lime. Floral lime. The light finish brings lime sherbet. Good fun and no scurvy here!
