Bottle from Archer Beer Stop, Sheffield. Amber, with a bubbly, broken, white head. Fruit salad juiciness. Nicely balanced malt. A juicy, light bitterness on the palate. Soft carbonation. Really liked this. Surprised at the relatively low, previous ratings.

On tap. Aroma and taste of toast, caramel, floral and citrusy hops. Not a very complex and bold beer, but well made. Easy to drink. I could session that.

Bottle from Cotteridge Wines, Birmingham. 5.8%. Poured a clear medium amber with a frothy white head. The aroma is floral hops. The flavour is medium bitter with a thin bodied, hoppy, weak liqourice, citrus fruit palate and a short bitter finish. Needs a little more on the hop front I feel, but a decent session beer.

330ml bottle. Clear amber colour with average, frothy to creamy, fairly lasting, minimally lacing, white head. Cautious bitter hoppy aroma with a touch of grapefruit. Taste is minimally sweet caramel malty with a biscuit touch, cautiously bitter hoppy; very soft palate. A way more malty than hoppy IPA.

Bright clear amber beer with a small off white head. Palate is light and dry. Mild creamy malt, semi dry. Hops are bitter, slightly harsh with a grassy note. A sour fruit and grapefruit - pithy orange. Bitter linger. Slightly harsh bit actually quite drinkable.

Bottle from Sourced Market, St Pancras. It pours clear orangy-amber with a small white head. The nose is bready, soft orange, light toast, wood, . The taste is juicy fruit, zesty orange, grapefruit, pine, bread, grain, light spice and caramel with a dry, lightly bitter finish. Strong malty backbone to it. Medium body and moderate carbonation. Not exactly bursting with flavour, but well balanced and pretty drinkable.
