Keg at BD on da Bush, 27/08/14. Clear golden with a well appointed white cap that retains. Nose carries gherkin notes, light spice, fresh herb, light citric notes, bread crumbs. Taste comprises straw, earthy, hint of cucumber, light spice. Medium bodied, moderate carbonation, semi drying close. Ok for style - does what it says on the tin, would I bother with it again ... noop!

On keg at the Culture & Cure, Bath, 25/8/2014. Deep gold with a slight, off-white, head. Some grassy hops, gentle cucumber freshness and slightly bready malts, leading to a dryish finish. Fine.

On keg at Coach and Horses, Dronfield - Pours clear pale gold with a short white head. Bit fizzy and cold. Nose has a bit of bread, but then goes into a raita dip aroma, loads of minty cucumber. Really interesting and refreshing. Finishes abrupt, but smooth. Great when it is 30°c in the shade.

750ml bottle. Slightly hazy yellow-gold colour, foamy white head and aroma of pickled cucumber, hint of mint, citrus, barnyard. Taste is cucumber, with lemon, spice, herby, mint and some barnyard, yeasty notes. Foamy mouthfeel, light watery bodied, soft carbonation, fairly clean finish with slight lingering pickled cucumber. Very refreshing, great stuff.

hazy golden color. Creamy white head. Very clean peppery nose with moderate amount of cucumber. The mouth however explodes with cucumber, with pepper in the background. The cucumber really makes this refreshing. Dry, but more hops are needed for the style and the finish falls apart. Still über über refreshing beer that tastes great and extra points for that

Bottle at Deans Winter Shelter Tasting. Poured a hazy light amber with a thin white head. The aroma is big cucumber. The flavour is neutral veggie with a watery cucumber light mint palate. Light bodied with average carbonation. A perfect palate cleanser.
